Corteo: The New Show by Cirque du Soleil

The next show for Cirque du Soleil will be called Corteo.

This new show, presented under a tent, will explore the world of dreams, a dimension between heaven and earth.  A press conference was held Tuesday to discuss the new tour.

Corteo, meaning "cortege" in Italian, is being directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca.  At the conference, he spoke about the show, "There will be a game of proportions: the big and the small, the ridiculous and the drama, the magic of perfection and the charm of imperfection.  The mystery of the show will come through song, the beauty through movement, the folly through rythm, the sensuality through touch, the mystery through costumes, and passion through dance.

Already, more than 147,000 tickets have been sold in advance for Corteo.  This new adventure will be presented in Montreal, Canada April 21 – June 19, Quebec, Canada June 30 – July 17, and Toronto August 4 -28.
