From April 18 through May 26, Bay Area audiences will be able to take a seat and experience in its most exciting form high-flying acrobatics, whimsical characters, lavish costuming, colorful sets, hilarious clowning, and a powerful live score. Tickets for all performances are still available at cirquedusoleil.com/kooza.
