On Friday, I took the family to this superb performance in Montreal. Cirque du Soleil is circus at its best, the grandkids and adults enjoyed it immensely and we highly recommend the show to anyone . Well worth the cost! Parking was easy on the pier adjacent to that with the show tent opposite Place Jacques Cartier. Traffic was light.
Try it you'll like it!
"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. 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, by turns lyrical and playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality."
