Cirque Italia takes visitors on a magical dream adventure
Jun 16, 2022 11h01 ● By Peri KinderStep back in time with Cirque Italia as performers thrill audiences with a dazzling water circus. When a young boy falls asleep, he dreams of living in the 1950s when Elvis ruled the radio, poodle skirts were the latest fad and revolutionary music changed a generation.
As the stage miraculously transforms into a 35,000-gallon water feature, the Cirque Italia “Aquatic Spectacular” offers drama, humor, daring adventures and captivating performances.
The show features a talented unicyclist, master jugglers, an aerial duo, dazzling contortionists, wild balancing acts and fun music. And that’s just the first half. After the 20-minute intermission, where kids can get pictures taken with the Transformer Bumblebee, the show continues with breathtaking crossbow action, perch pole balancing and jawdropping acrobatics. An audience member even got to see the crossbow demonstration up-close and personal.
Started in 2012, Cirque Italia is an Italian entertainment company that brings a performance in European style. It is described as a “vivid, dramatic, and moving experience under a customized traveling tent.”
