In August Cirque du Soleil returns to amaze and delight New Zealand audiences. The super-talented dancers, acrobats, gymnasts, musicians and actors will perform TOTEM, an award-winning show that explores the myths around the origin and evolution of our species. Like previous shows by the travelling troupe, TOTEM is guaranteed to leave audiences gaping open-mouthed, as performers master increasingly impressive acts in a mission to overload the senses with the sheer, gloriously mesmerizing spectacle of it all.
While the announcement of a new show is exciting enough, this production is extra special as it will be performed in Cirque du Soleil’s Big Top, a custom-designed circus tent, pitched at Auckland’s Alexandra Park. It opens on August 22 for a five-week run.
