.Cirque du Soleil Returning to San Jose with 'LUZIA'

Tickets are on sale today for the world-renowned Cirque du Soleil, who make their return to Silicon Valley in February 2017. Known for their high-flying, elaborate performances and decidedly modern aesthetic, the Canadian troupe of gymnasts, mimes and dancers are bringing their latest touring production, LUZIA, to San Jose.
Featuring simulated rainstorms onstage, LUZIA promises to be a wet and wild adventure, which pays homage to the colorful culture and landscapes of Mexico. Previous big top productions have centered on other themes—from the natural world to Michael Jackson. Expect, as always, that Cirque du Soleil will pull out all the stops for LUZIA with the best performers, costumes, music and props.
The exact location of LUZIA in San Jose has yet to be announced. Read the press release below this video preview of the show:

LUZIA – A waking dream of Mexico
LUZIA takes you to an imaginary Mexico, like in a waking dream, where light (“luz” in Spanish) quenches the spirit and rain (“lluvia”) soothes the soul.
Freely inspired by Mexico, LUZIA is a poetic and acrobatic ode to the rich, vibrant culture of a country whose wealth stems from an extraordinary mix of influences and creative collisions – a land that inspires awe with its breathtaking landscapes and architectural wonders, buoyed by the indomitable spirit of its people.
The tableaux of LUZIA weave an intricate, contemporary mosaic that awakens your senses and transports you to a place suspended between dreams and reality. Featuring a cast of 44 performers from diverse artistic backgrounds, LUZIA surprises with acrobatic performances breaking down the barriers, such as integrating rain and water into contemporary circus disciplines.
