CIRQUE DU SOLEIL ALEGRIA

Alegría is a classic internationally acclaimed production by the Cirque du Soleil which has dazzled over 10 million people worldwide since its 1994 premiere in Montreal.

Alegría features a cast of 55 performers and musicians originating from 17 different countries. Alegría has a baroque and operatic style, with a flamboyant wardrobe, live music and an elaborate presentation that highlights the amazing artistic and athletic performances. The result is an impressive blend of talent, strength and speed, combined with elegant, almost ethereal performances.

The two-and-a-half-hour show (with intermission), showcases breathtaking acrobatics. The acts include the “Synchro Trapeze” and the high energy of “Aerial High Bars”, where daredevil trapeze artists fly to the hands of their fellows, swinging more than 12 metres above the stage.  The vibrancy of youth is present in the accelerated “Power Track”, a brilliant demonstration of synchronized choreography and jumps on a system of trampolines hidden beneath the stage. In “Russian Bars”, artists fly in spectacular somersaults and flips to land on a 10cm-wide bar resting on their colleagues'' shoulders.

Alegría is not just a show ... it is an exciting and unique experience that captivates audiences of all ages.

From a group of about 20 street performers when it started out in 1984, Cirque du Soleil has grown to the become a leader in quality entertainment, with over 5,000 employees including over 1300 artists originating from nearly 50 different countries. The company has dazzled and amazed almost 100 million spectators in over 300 cities on five continents.
