Cirque du Soleil’s Corteo will be at Infinite Energy Arena from August 29-September 2, 2018.
I’m biased–Cirque du Soleil’s productions remain among my favorites each year. I love their blend of artistry and acrobatics.
This production, Corteo, sounds like it’ll be full of the whimsy that I love: “Corteo, which means cortege in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the actor with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth.
The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere, watched over by quietly caring angels. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music turns lyrical and playful carrying Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.”
