Sun Princess to Feature Three Original Cirque Shows

Princess Cruises has announced that its upcoming mega ship, Sun Princess will feature three original circus performances in collaboration with Cirque Éloize.

The immersive performances are being created specifically for The Dome, a new top-deck, multi-level entertainment venue that is brand-new for the cruise line aboard Sun Princess. The Dome offers natural sky views both day and night, and utilizes state-of-the-art lighting effects and a hidden stage with technical capabilities to deliver the perfect setting for three shows that will feature eight acrobatic and aerial performers.

Cirque Éloize has been a driving force in Montreal’s cultural scene for 30 years, and its shows have been seen by over five million spectators. The contemporary circus combines the circus arts with music, dance, technology, and theater to captivate audiences that are seeking meaningful entertainment.

Three 20-30 minute shows will rotate on Sun Princess in The Dome. They’ll involve aerial hoops, an aerial pole, bungee, Cyr wheel, silks, contortion, and more.

Come Fly Away

This performance evokes notions of the 1950s era Rat Pack and the vibrancy of love. A whimsical retro spectacle in which the bandleader — aided and abetted by his ensemble of misfits — falls head over heels for an audience member. It’s a celebration of the lost art of the chase in which all are willing participants.

Artbeat
