Banana Shpeel from Cirque du Soleil is a roller coaster mix of styles that blends comedy with slapstick. Propelled by crazy humor and intense choreography, the show follows a succession of wacky adventures led by Schmelky, the irritable and over-the-top theater producer. Banana Shpeel is written and directed by David Shiner, the creator of Cirque du Soleil's KOOZA. Learn More
