Cirque du Soleil has announced today that it will debut a major new acrobatic spectacle next summer at Radio City Music Hall in New York. It will be directed by François Girard ("The Red Violin," "Silk").
Created especially for the landmark theater, previews will begin for the new production in June 2011, with the premiere date to be confirmed shortly. (The Tony Awards will be held in a different location).
The new show takes place in an abandoned theatre and follows a magician who has lost his love and his magic. He is plunged into a world inhabited by surreal creatures. The diverse cast of 71 international artists transports the audience into a fantastical and suspenseful world, blurring the boundaries between the real and imaginary.
Along with Girard, the creative team consists of 12 creators under the artistic guidance of Cirque du Soleil Founder Guy Laliberté and Gilles Ste-Croix.
iShares® is the presenting sponsor of this new production. American Express® is the official sponsor.
