KURIOS - Cabinet of Curiosities premiered to the world in Montréal in April 2014 and is Cirque du Soleil's 35th production. Since its debut, the critics have been raving: "KURIOS is Cirque du Soleil's strongest act in years...one of the most amazing things I've ever seen on a stage" (Toronto Star) and "KURIOS is the best Cirque du Soleil show in a long time." (San Francisco Chronicle).

Written and directed by Michel Laprise, KURIOS - Cabinet of Curiosities is a tale in which time comes to a complete stop, transporting the audience inside a fantasy world where everything is possible. In this realm set in the latter half of the nineteenth century, reality is quite relative indeed as our perception of it is utterly transformed. The name of the show refers to the humble and strange characters that inhabit the Seeker's Cabinet of Curiosities.
