Opening October 30th, 2008, for a one month run at the National Harbor in Washington, DC, Cirque Du Soleil combines some of the best acrobatic performers in the world, with the art of clowning to create mystifying stories that delights audiences.

Tickets for Cirque’s Middle Eastern inspired show, KOOZA, just went on sale. The show includes high-flying acrobats, amazing gymnastics and dance, high wire and trapeze artists, bicyclists, jugglers, and, as always, a good dose of humor and memorizing live music.  

Cirque du Soleil has reinvented circus performing and taken it to amazing new heights.  That’s why over 80 million people worldwide have seen the magic of Cirque. 

I’ve seen three of their shows and each performance was spectacular and totally entertaining.  After attending any show, there’s always a few acts that leave me asking  “just how did they do that?”

Tickets are now on sale and should go fast, so order soon.
