Orlando, FL (PRWEB) August 31, 2010
Broadway in New York City and Theatre Row in Los Angeles have formidable competition in Downtown Disney West Side, where night after night, a masterful mix of dazzling choreography, theatrical lighting, brilliant music and mesmerizing performances delight tourists and locals alike.
Cirque du Soleil® La Nouba was created exclusively for the Walt Disney World Resort, is Disney's resident show. And ticket sales for the production just surpassed 1 million for The Official Ticket Center (OTC), which sells discounted tickets, passes and upgrades to Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Kennedy Space Center, as well as dozens of other water parks and attractions in the area.
"La Nouba is one of only four resident Cirque du Soleil shows in existence," said Patrick Pulliam, owner of OTC. "The other three are in Las Vegas, which I've seen twice. There are some common acts in Cirque du Soleil shows, although each show does it in a unique way," he added. "The production at Disney is simply masterful. I can see why it's been rated as one of the best Cirque du Soleil has to offer."
La Nouba in Orlando was literally built from the ground up. After the contract was signed between Cirque du Soleil and Disney, the theatre was designed to match the concept of the show.
While OTC has sold millions of tickets around the world to theme parks and other attractions, Pulliam says it was both an exciting and stunning milestone when they hit the one million mark for ticket sales to the show. "We took the literal French translation of 'La Nouba,' which means to party, or live it up, and took the entire staff to see the show over the summer to celebrate."
Pulliam's customers come from all over the country, with many repeat customers. "The breakdown between vacationers and residents is almost split," said Pulliam, referring to Cirque ticket purchasers. "Because it's a family-oriented production, we receive a lot of calls from families who want to book their reservations well in advance. It's a smart way to plan both their daytime and nighttime activities so they can get the most out of their vacation."
La Nouba has two performances Tuesday through Saturday at 6 p.m. and 9 p.m., making it convenient to attend dinner before or after the show.
Pulliam's company specializes in ticket packages and upgrades to all Disney parks as well as Orlando dinner shows and attractions including Blue Man Group, Busch Gardens, Ripley's Believe it Or Not! and The Richard Petty Driving Experience. Cirque du Soleil tickets can be purchased individually or in bulk at discount children's and adult prices. They also can be added on to any existing ticket package.
"We offer the customer things: price, convenience and satisfaction," said Pulliam. "We're upfront about our pricing, and we never add on 'pass-through' fees or other hidden costs. Taxes are already included in the price. If the customer doesn't have a satisfying experience with us, we're not happy. It's not about making a sale," he said, "it's about making sure the customer is happy and treated fairly."
The Official Ticket Center has been an industry leader in discount Orlando attraction tickets, including disney world tickets, sea world tickets, universal studios tickets and more for more than 10 years. Its offerings are available online or over the telephone through a toll-free number, and the company is known for its fair pricing, integrity, and commitment to customer satisfaction.
