On 30 October, KURIOS, one of Cirque du Soleil’s most celebrated productions, premieres in Madrid at the Escenario Puerta del Ángel, located in the Casa de Campo fairgrounds. After captivating more than six million spectators in over forty cities worldwide since its original premiere in Montreal in 2014, the show arrives in the Spanish capital with its fascinating universe of wonder, imagination and visual magic.
Directed by Michel Laprise, KURIOS transports audiences into the laboratory of a visionary scientist who is convinced that a hidden world filled with marvels exists just beyond reality. When he succeeds in opening its doors, time seems to stand still and an extraordinary collection of curious characters comes to life, creating a theatrical experience that celebrates curiosity, creativity and the limitless power of imagination.
True to the distinctive style of Cirque du Soleil, the production combines breathtaking acrobatics, gravity-defying aerial performances, live music and a richly detailed steampunk-inspired aesthetic, creating a world where science and fantasy blend seamlessly.
Acclaimed by audiences and critics around the world, KURIOS arrives in Madrid for a limited engagement that promises to be one of the season’s major cultural highlights. A unique opportunity to step inside a cabinet of curiosities where the impossible becomes possible and imagination reigns supreme.
