Opium

Opium was an amazing show! It was hilarious and all of the performers are extremely talented. Nick H on cyr wheel was phenomenal. 10/10 recommend!

Enjoyed the show very much. The talented performers that put on a raunchy undertone performance of excellent acrobatic and performing talents was just what we wanted that night. The hostess was great and the crowd was loving every minute.

Absinthe is my favorite show in Vegas, and Opium is similar but a small step down compared to it. They were all very good individual performances but just didn’t quite transition together as well. Nevertheless, a very enjoyable show overall. I would go again.

Just saw Opium this week while in Vegas. Was really looking forward to it as Absynth is my favorite all time show and it didn't disappoint. The lead "robot" lady was so hilarious. The acts were all really good as well. We went on a Wed night and got upgraded seats due to empties, although I can't imagine there is a seat in the house that would be bad given it is a smaller venue. Would highly recommend (assuming you don't get offended easily 😂).

Update: I just saw the new show and this is my 3rd time seeing Opium overall. The new revamped show is not as good as the old version, comedy seemed forced and was less entertaining. It was just a bunch of random acts all thrown together and rushed with no cohesion or real relation to the space theme. The storyline was completely missing! In this new version, the spaceship storyline doesn't make any sense. The old version was much funnier and more entertaining, which was sadly mostly missing tonight. The captain was excellent in the past as the main host and he was completely absent from tonight's show as well as several other important cast members like Todd and Chip. I hope that it was only for this night. There are several new acts and though they are all talented, I was not wowed as I had been in the past. The bubble guy is still the best of show. The length of the show seemed shorter than the last 2 times I saw it. Not as good as it used to be but still fun entertainment. Not worth the full ticket price but discounted, yes. No bad seats in the theater which is small and intimate. I miss the old storyline, the cast of characters and live band. I suspect the implemented changes was to accommodate the new Super Frico restaurant and I think that was mistake. Also, the chairs zip tied together and uncomfortably close to others. There needs more room between them. Airplane seats have more space. If this is your first time seeing Opium, you would probably enjoy it. If you had seen it in thr past you will most likely be disappointed. I hate to say it but I probably would not see this show again.

I have seen Opium 5 times now, it’s my favorite show in Vegas to take my friends to! Every time I see the show, it’s different. Some of my favorite acts I always see in the show include the cyr wheel “Saturn and his Ring” which is crazy to see this guy spinning so fast on such a tiny stage… he is so cool!!! He was my friends’ favorite act as well. I have even met the performer: Nick. The Bubbles act is the best kind of that act that I have ever seen… it is like Mr. Rogers meets Willy Wonka and Bill Nye the Science guy, and then boom: bubbles. Another one of my favorites is the straight jacket escape to “No One” by Alicia Keys. I haven’t seen that act in a while, but it’s definitely an act that I keep coming back for! They have a new Limbo act that is way too much fun, and another act (that I’m not sure how to identify) which is a percussion/body percussion/beatboxing trio. Characters I wish I saw more of lately are: Skip, Captain Kunton, and whatever the robot guy’s name was. I also adore the VIP couple (a hilariously disgusting act with bananas), and Venus the screeching plate spinner. If you’re thinking of seeing Opium, GO!!!!!!!
