Written and directed by Michel Laprise, ‘KURIOS’ is a tale in which time comes to a complete stop, transporting the audience inside a fantasy world where everything is possible.
Since its debut, critics across North America, Japan and Singapore have been raving. 'KURIOS' stars an international cast of 47 artists from 17 countries, a collection of otherworldly characters made up of world-class gymnasts, acrobats, contortionists, hand-puppeteers, yo-yo wizards, clowns, actors and musicians.

Together they create an incredible steampunk world, guided by an energetic gypsy jazz, electro swing soundtrack. It’s Cirque du Soleil at its very best and is a MUST SEE for 2019/2020!
More than a hundred costumes were created to dress the cast of 'KURIOS'.
There are 426 props in the show, the most of any production in Cirque du Soleil’s history.
