Cirque Du Soleil: Corteo

In October, Cirque du Soleil's breathtaking arena production Corteo conquers the Hallenstadion Zurich. Directed by the talented Ticino native Daniele Finzi Pasca, Corteo was first performed in Montreal in April 2005. Since then, the show has enchanted over 10 million spectators in 20 countries on 4 continents. Corteo, which stands for parade in Italian, tells the story of a clown who imagines his own funeral as a joyous carnival celebration, watched over silently by compassionate angels. This show combines the passion of acting with the grace and power of acrobatics. The audience is transported into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity - to a mysterious place between heaven and earth. The show illuminates the strength and fragility of the clown as well as his wisdom and kindness, presenting the complexity that lies within us all. The music, sometimes lyrical, sometimes playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion outwits reality. The unique staging places the stage right in the middle of the arena, creating a special perspective. The Eiffel Tower-inspired, partially hand-painted curtains create a grandiose atmosphere and underline the poetry of Corteo - an ambience never before experienced in a Cirque du Soleil arena production.
