Saw a performance of this at Ravinia two years, and, while they didn't have live cannons, they did have choral sections that are rarely used with performances of this piece. And they were translated into English.
Although, honestly, 1812 is a bit overrated. Capriccio Italien is pretty metal at times, but surprisingly, it gets overshadowed. Maybe it's the lack of cannonfire, but still (relevant section starts at 10 minutes in)
