"Corteo, which means cortege in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The show brings together the passion of the actor with the grace and power of the acrobat to plunge the audience into a theatrical world of fun, comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth," Cirque du Soleil said in a new release.
The show is directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca and first premiered in Montreal in April 2005. Since then the show has amazed over 10 million spectators across 20 countries.
