Jungle Boogie

The “Cirque” name has become closely associated with daring athleticism and show-stopping performances, and word on the street is that the newest incarnation, Cirque Dreams, is no different.

The “Cirque” name has become closely associated with daring athleticism and show-stopping performances, and word on the street is that the newest incarnation, Cirque Dreams, is no different. Taking on the dual themes of jungle and fantasy, the show combines the breathtaking displays of human strength and flexibility you’ve come to expect from the captivating spectacle and combines them with a dazzling array of costumes, set pieces, lights, and music. And because this production comes directly from Broadway, where it was an across-the-board smash, you can expect the Ziff Opera House at the Arsht Center to be packed. The show is definitely kid-friendly, so gather your herd, get your tickets, and take a break from television for a night. Your little cubs will thank you.
