KURIOS™ takes us into an alternative yet familiar past, where wonders abound for those who trust their imagination. Here, a Seeker discovers that in order to glimpse the marvels that lie just below the surface, we must first learn to close our eyes. What if by engaging our imagination and opening our minds we could unlock the door to a world of wonders?
KURIOS™ – Cabinet of Curiosities is Cirque du Soleil’s 35th production since 1984, and the first big-top show by Cirque du Soleil in Edmonton since Amaluna in 2013.
Cabinets of curiosities are the ancestors of museums, also known as cabinet of wonder in the Renaissance Europe. Aristocrats, members of the merchant class and early practitioners of science formed collections of historical relics, works of art or mysterious travel souvenirs or artefacts.
KURIOS™ – Cabinet of Curiosities has a cast of 46 artists from 15 different countries. About 60% of the artists have already worked with Cirque du Soleil before.
