Cirque du Soleil is returning to Auckland with their newest Big Top show, Kooza.
Five years since Cirque du Soleil dazzled Kiwis with Totem, Kooza is described as a breath-taking homage to the traditions of circus.
With an international cast of 50 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors, Kooza follows The Innocent as he journeys through a colourful world of eccentric characters and white-knuckle thrills.
Kooza reportedly steps up the daredevil acrobatics, returning to the "intimate and fundamental human elements of circus".
Reviews for Kooza have praised the show's dazzling production, with The Independent honouring its "theatrical ingenuity and acrobatic wonder".
