With their dramatic Broadway-esque blend of the circus and street performance, Cirque du Soleil celebrates 30 years of shocking audiences with miraculous feats of human physicality. This year, they have brought their touring show Varekai, which is a word from the Romany language which means “wherever”. The show was conceptualized on the basis of mythology like many of the previous productions. The story begins with the Greek myth of Icarus, picking up where the myth leaves off, reimagining the story of what happened to Icarus after he fell from the sky. He lands in the middle of a jungle at the base of a volcano where he must learn to fly again.
