A theatrical procession of poetic characters and graceful acrobats.
CORTEO
Touring in Brazil
BUY TICKETSOFFICIAL WEBSITECorteo, which means "cortege" in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the actor with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth.
The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere, watched over by quietly caring angels. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music, by turns lyrical and playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.

"Si en lo que respeta a lo escénico «Corteo» es uno de los montajes mejor cosidos de los que el Cirque du Soleil ha presentado en España, en lo artístico no le va a la zaga, de tal manera queel espectador se ve continuamente atrapado entre la sensación de felicidad y la de sobrecogimiento."

"Corteo es un circo de verdad, con un gigante, dos liliputienses y una poética que remite a las viejas compañías de barraca, aunque quepa también algún momento de bonita felicitación navideña de Ferrandiz."

"La madurez de los canadienses se nota además en lo arriesgado de una apuesta más teatral y melancólica –sin perder espectacularidad y humor– que parte de la muerte como «leit motiv». "
