Cirque du Soleil: Corteo 2023 Performance Schedule
Cirque du Soleil: Corteo is playing in over a dozen cities in 2023! And you simply need to see the show described as a “theatrical world of fun, comedy, and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth.” Corteo is currently playing in Los Angeles, CA, making stops in Frisco, TX, Kingston, ON, San Jose, CA, Phoenix, AZ, Cleveland, OH, and more through the rest of the year.
“The clown Mauro has passed, but his spirit is still with us,” Cirque du Soleil states when explaining the plot of Corteo, which means “cortege” in Italian. “Instead of mourning, the funeral cortege celebrates the here and hereafter with laughter and exuberance. Rich, extravagant memories frolic with the senses. The sound of laughter peals around the stage, visions of joyous tumblers and players fascinate the eyes.”
“Regret and melancholy retreat in the face of a cavalcade of lively recollections of a life gloriously lived,” the official site continues. “A festive parade that entertains; the perfect accolade for an artist whose life was dedicated to revelry and making merry.” Cirque du Soleil: Corteo is arguably one of the deepest renditions of the traveling circus show yet bridging the gap between heaven and earth for all involved.
The kids may see only acrobatic angels, dancing clowns, and darkly funny parades, but the adults will notice something more. Cirque du Soleil: Corteo depicts Mauro’s postmortem memories as a bittersweet celebration of all that he’s done… making people laugh, cry, sing, and everything in between. Funny enough, he’s doing just that every night with the audiences of Cirque du Soleil: Corteo. And you’ll get to be a part of the action with this breathtaking performance.
It’s up to the adults in the audience how deep they’d like to get with their children. On one hand, Cirque du Soleil: Corteo could be a learning experience for the little ones not to fear death, but embrace the beauty of life. However, it’s also totally fine to leave the lessons at home as you sit back and enjoy the surreal acrobatic extravaganza. That’s what Cirque du Soleil is known for, after all, and you’ll get all the dancing horses, joke-spitting clowns, and heaven-like figures at your fingertips with tickets to Corteo.
