Corteo is Cirque du Soleil's most magical and extraordinary production!
The show will be presented in Nice, at the Palais Nikaïa, from 20 to 23 August 2020.
Corteo which means "cortege" in Italian is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. Combining acrobatic prowess, comedy and acting, Corteo immerses the viewer in a theatrical universe imbued with playfulness and spontaneity, located in a strange space between heaven and earth.
In a funfair atmosphere, the clown evokes his own funeral, under the watchful eye of a flock of benevolent angels. Opposing the great and the small, the ridiculous and the tragic, the magic of perfection and the charm of imperfection, the show appeals to the strength and fragility of the clown, but also to his wisdom and tenderness, to illustrate the part of humanity in each of us. Carried by sounds sometimes lyrical, sometimes funny, Corteo is a timeless feast where illusion tickles reality.
The design and layout of the stage transport the viewer in a theatrical atmosphere never seen in an arena at Cirque du Soleil, setting the table for Corteo'spoetic universe. The curtains surrounding the stage, inspired by the Eiffel Tower, and the hand-painted, polished curtains give the scene a grand look.
Corteo's troupe of artists is made up of 51 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors from all over the world.
