Cirque du Soleil will re-create its newest fantasy world for South Florida fans when the high-flying production "Kurios: Cabinet of Curiosities" fills the iconic blue-and-yellow big-top tent next to the Miami Dolphins' stadium in Miami Gardens Dec. 10-Jan. 8.
Tickets for all performances go on sale 10 a.m. Aug. 12 at CirqueDuSoleil.com/kurios or by calling 877-924-7783. Prices range from $39 to $160.
"Kurios: Cabinet of Curiosities" has dazzled critics across North America since its world premiere in Montréal in 2014. The Chicago Tribune's Chris Jones called it "a dazzling, hyper-detailed, potent, quixotic and generally fantastic show that reveals this extraordinary artistic company's singular capacity for exploration and metamorphosis. It is not to be missed on any account."
Written and directed by a new Cirque visionary, Michel Laprise, "Kurios" is "an exquisitely detailed affair, evocative of a Victorian carnival or a collection of sideshow entertainments with a steampunk vibe," Jones wrote. "If you're the kind of person who likes clockwork toys, wacky gadgets, old amusement machines, arcades and pianolas, then 'Kurios' will land right in your wheelhouse."
The family-friendly show will run a little more than two hours, with a 25-minute intermission, inside the climate-controlled grand chapiteau set up in the stadium parking lot. Refreshments and snacks will be available in the entrance tent, right next to the obligatory Cirque du Soleil store.
