But as soon as the show opened and I saw the live band playing in the background while the acrobats gracefully climbed ropes and performed daring tricks, I was enthralled. It was better than magic.

So to keep the magic alive, I have to pass along this deal.

Cirque Imagination just announced a new performance date in Houston for its newest show, "Montage," and they have slashed ticket prices by up to 40 percent.

So what is Cirque Imagination? It's actually similar to Cirque du Soleil and even features former Cirque du Soleil artists.

"Montage" features unique acrobatics and aerial feats by more than 25 world-class performers. The L.A. Times has called the show "strictly heavyweight, amazing, mind boggling," but what will Houstonians call it? If you go, let me know.
