The KURIOS Experience KURIOS—Cabinet of Curiosities marks Cirque du Soleil’s sixth return to Alicante, showcasing the strong bond between the Canadian company and the city.
Critically acclaimed worldwide, KURIOS revisits Cirque du Soleil’s signature style, blending spectacular acrobatics with a touch of poetry, art, and humor. The show unveils “a festive, steampunk-inspired universe where the unexpected lurks around every corner,” according to company sources.
KURIOS steps into the mechanical laboratory of a Scientist convinced that a hidden, invisible world exists—a place where the craziest ideas and grandest dreams await. Once the Scientist manages to open the door to this world of wonders, time comes to a complete standstill, and a cast of otherworldly characters invades his cabinet of curiosities, bringing his makeshift creations to life one by one. As the visible becomes invisible and perspectives shift, KURIOS explodes into a celebration of the power of imagination.
Premiered in Montreal in 2014, KURIOS has mesmerized over 6 million spectators across 40 cities worldwide with more than 3,000 performances by its cast of 50 artists. Since its inception in 1984, Cirque du Soleil has inspired over 378 million people in 86 countries.
