Royal Albert Hall Presents CIRQUE DU SOLEIL: VAREKAI, 5 January - 13 February

Cirque du Soleil celebrates its 25th anniversary with a special return visit to the Royal Albert Hall with Varekai Tuesday 5 January through Saturday 13 February.

In a dream forest, acrobatics and beauty meet, join Cirque du Soleil for this magical show.
Deep within a forest, at the summit of a volcano, exists an extraordinary world—a world where something else is possible.  A world called Varekai.

From the sky falls a solitary young man and the story of Varekai begins. Parachuted into the shadows of a magical forest, a kaleidoscopic world populated by fantastical creatures, this young man sets off on an adventure both absurd and extraordinary. On this day at the edge of time, in this place of all possibilities, begins an inspired incantation to life rediscovered.

The word Varekai means 'wherever' in the Romany language of the gypsies, the universal wanderers. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul, to the spirit and art of the circus tradition, and to the infinite passion of those whose quest takes them along the path that leads to Varekai.

Ticket prices range from £20 to £75.
