Cirque du Soleil: CORTEO Tickets

Clowns have gotten a bad rap, pop culture-wise, in the last few years. But the lovable character at the center of Cirque du Soleil: Corteo is definitely not It. Instead, he's a beloved entertainer who imagines his own funeral procession in the form of a festive and lavish parade, accompanied by flying angels. As he passes from this life, the comedian's reverie blends past reality with heavenly fantasy, creating a spellbinding world brought to life under the bigtop by dazzling costumes and sets. The drama of the real lives of traveling performers merges with the surreal to create Cirque du Soleil's trademark visuals and a mysterious journey you can't forget. This amazing show is packed with Cirque's seemingly impossible acrobatics, "for a display of human physicality that defies the laws of physics" (LA Weekly), as well as lyrical and playful music that will fill the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia.
