New York Live Arts kicks off its 2015-16 season with the presentation of Louise Lecavalier's "powerfully zen and poignantly human" (The Guardian) So Blue, September 9-12 at 7:30pm.
Cirque du Soleil is very happy to unveil the name of its next touring show inspired by James Cameron's record-breaking movie AVATAR : TORUK The First Flight.
Cavalia has always hit the mark by putting man and horse together in a breathlessly singular way, and now in Odysseo with the beauty of nature as backdrop, they are more in tune than ever. Cirque, equitation and equestrian arts meet once more in a spectacular display!
See enough Cirque du Soleil productions and the formula becomes clear very quickly. It's a given that you'll be treated to a collection of world-class jugglers, balancers, acrobats and daredevils displaying skills that would make all but the most jaded widen their eyes and let out the occasional gasp. But it's the packaging that always varies, though you can always expect a threadbare plot (more concerned with mood than story), forgettable songs and a troupe of clowns whose antics are, on occasion, genuinely amusing.
Cirque du Soleil will present its major new acrobatic spectacle, Zarkana, at the legendary Radio City Music Hall in New York City with performances starting Thursday, June 9, 2011 for a limited engagement through October 8, 2011.
Pre 20th century, the horse, unlike the dog, was man's most vital companion. Travel, simply getting around, would have been practically impossible without the horse. Today we tend to forget that fact and also tend to overlook the genuine beauty of this most precious animal. Now in a spectacular show - no, event - Normand Latourelle, creator of the world-famous Cirque du Soleil, brings man and horse together in a breathlessly singular way in Cavalia. This awesome event returns to Los Angeles in Burbank for the first time since 2004 and resides under the White Big Top, the largest traveling tent of its kind, until February 13 only, before its tour.
