Cirque du Soleil KURIOS – Cabinet of Curiosities

The Seeker believes in an invisible world where the craziest ideas and dreams await.

A Cabinet of Curiosities

In his larger-than-life curio cabinet, the Seeker is convinced that there exists a hidden, invisible world – a place where the craziest ideas and the grandest dreams lie waiting. A collection of otherworldly characters suddenly steps into his makeshift mechanical world.

Multiple artists on stage dressed in colourful costumes.

When the outlandish, benevolent characters turn the Seeker's world upside down with a touch of poetry and humor in an attempt to ignite his imagination, his curios jump to life one by one before his very eyes. What if by engaging our imagination and opening our minds we could unlock the door to a world of wonders?

“KURIOS is a show that celebrates imagination. We want people to leave the Big Top feeling like everything is possible”

Michel Laprise,

Creator and Director of KURIOS
