From 12th July to 13th August, Cirque du Soleil is set to dazzle audiences with its KOOZA performance at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. A homage to the troupe’s origins, KOOZA will showcase a blend of graceful acrobatics and clowning while exploring themes of fear, identity, recognition and power. The show takes the Innocent on a thrilling journey, pitting him against comic characters from a fantastic world, which is set to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.

One of the spectacles that will be on display is the hoops manipulation. Manipulating up to seven hoops simultaneously, the troupe’s acrobats combine a fluidity of movement, flexibility, dexterity and balance in the feat. In the double highwire act, acrobats will cross precarious lengths of high wires set up to 8m above ground, showing marvellous balance and technique. The skilfully choreographed skeleton dance and the wheel of death segment will capture the audience’s collective breath. Early bookings are highly recommended for this greatly anticipated show.
