Cirque Dreams

Cirque Dreams, a circus fantasy of strength, spectacle and wonder, will play UT Performing Arts Center’s Bass Concert Hall July 28-August 1 for six performances only. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 4th at noon.

In the spirit of the enormously successful “Cirque Ingenieux” comes the latest creation from Cirque Productions, “Cirque Dreams,” conceived and directed by Neil Goldberg. An original and imaginative burst of color, costumes and amazing performance artistry, the show features an international cast - from inventive acrobats and loose-limbed contortionists to stunning chiffon-draped aerialists and sculpted men of strength.

The Los Angeles Times calls Goldberg’s “Cirque Dreams” “A sumptuous big top spectacle turned stage show,” and The Washington Post praises it as “A soaring flight of fantasy.” “Mesmerizing and Illuminating,” raves The Chicago Tribune and Variety exclaims - “Amazing artistry.” The Miami Herald sums it up - “A combination of fantasy circus and Broadway dream.”

Goldberg’s signature style of inventive acrobatics, costuming, choreography and music are enhanced with some of the most striking visual and ultra violet effects ever presented on stage. An aerial ballet over the audience, an interactive music symphony and four-legged stilt creatures appearing around the theater are just some of the performance highlights to expect.

“Cirque Dreams” will play Wednesday, July 28 – Saturday, August 1 in Bass Concert Hall.
