The new Cirque Du Soleil performance CRYSTAL is making its debut in Australia next year.
From trapeze, banquine and pendular poles, the new performance CRYSTAL from Cirque Du Soleil is not to be missed.
Their usual approach to circus performances is impressive enough, to add the ice-skating factor is a colossal methodology towards wow-ing audiences like they’ve never done before.

Expect an adrenaline rush with this performance. However, also expect to be absorbed by a touching tale of identity. The protagonist behind the story is a playful, curious soul. On her journey of self-discovery, the character Crystal is taken through all the facets of becoming who she was meant to be.
“The performance itself is all about perspective – how we see ourselves is a direct reflection of how we see the world. It’s a magical story that springs to life on the ice and we can’t wait to bring it to Australia in 2023,” says Robert Tannion, CRYSTAL’s Artistic Director.

Being the group’s 42nd creation, it’s no surprise that they truly have the experience to immerse the audience in a circus wonder. Using traditional circus methods such as juggling and hand balancing, it’s as if they told themselves doing it on solid ground wasn’t challenging enough.
Of course, ice skating will be incorporated into this performance as much as the traditional circus fields. It’s the first time the group has performed figure skating and extreme skating in a show. “This show is everything that you love about Cirque Du Soleil and so much more,” says Geoff Jones, TEG CEO.
Based in Montreal Canada, Cirque Du Soleil has re-imagined what circus can be. By including locals and giving the opportunity to performers in over 70 countries since the organisation’s beginning, it’s no surprise that CRYSTAL won’t be their last re-conceptualisation of circus.
