The Cirque de Soleil production of Corteo will come to Albany's MVP Arena in the Spring of 2024. In a press release, Corteo is described as a festive parade imagined by a clown:
The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere, watched over by quietly caring angels. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music turns lyrical and playful carrying Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.
Performances will take place as follows:
- Friday, April 19, 2024 at 7:30 p.m.
- Saturday, April 20, 2024 at 11:30 a.m., 3:30 p.m. & 7:30 p.m.
- Sunday, April 21, 2024 at 1 p.m.
Tickets go on sale Monday October 23rd via cirquedusoleil.com/corteo
