LUZIA by Cirque du Soleil

Step right up, Sydney – the world-famous circus that has been dazzling Australians for twenty-five years is back under the Big Top to blow our minds all over again!  

After months of travelling, Cirque du Soleil’s Luzia has landed at the Sydney Entertainment Quarter on the final stop of its 25th Anniversary Australian tour.

Inspired by the people, places, and stories that define Mexico, Luzia takes audiences on an incredible journey full of colours, sounds and heart-stopping acrobatics.

Artistic Director, Gracie Valdez describes the wonders of this dream-like escape to an imaginary Mexico, the use of water and rain in the production, and why Luzia appeals to audiences of all ages. 

Gold Coast high-diver and acrobat, Helena Merten talks about realising her childhood dream of joining Cirque du Soleil and touring the world as The Running Woman in Luzia, and fellow Aussie, Nelson Smyles, shares his experiences as a gymnast and his dual role of Clown and Hoop-Diver.

Electrician, Jacob Harding, and plumber, Ethan Westland talk about the intricacies of setting up and maintaining this mammoth travelling production, and Colette from Wardrobe shares insights into making the costumes aesthetically exciting as well as for functional for the performers.

With mesmerising scenery, music, and performances, Cirque du Soleil’s Luzia is a feast for the eyes and ears, so whether it’s a night out with friends or a treat for the family, this is an event not to be missed.
