The Sensual Side of Cirque du Soleil presents Zumanity, a provocative, cabaret-style production with a Cirque du Soleil twist. Epitomizing contemporary Las Vegas, the adult-themed 90-minute production is unveiled twice nightly, from Wednesday through Sunday at 7:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., at New York-New York Hotel & Casino.

With Zumanity, Cirque du Soleil takes a bold new direction, exploring the full spectrum of human sexuality and intimacy to create a mosaic of love in all its shapes and forms. Emceed by Zumanity's resident "Mistress of Seduction" (famed drag diva Joey Arias) and distinguished by unconventional artists and the candid exhibition of sensuality, the production tells a story of emotional freedom, natural beauty and the acceptance of differences.
