Why Watch Cirque du Soleil LUZIA Brisbane?

  • LUZIA, a portmanteau of 'light' and 'rain' in Spanish, is a breathtaking ode to Mexican culture that blends vibrant colors with nature and surrealism.
  • The show puts a new spin on traditional Chinese hoop diving with gigantic treadmills, Trapeze flies under rain, and never-before-seen set designs.
  • The gorgeous sets evoke the landscapes and architecture of Mexico, bringing a varied heritage to life.
  • Director Daniele Finzi Pasca’s own experience with gymnastics paired with the tapestry of his own rich experiences are reflected through the daring acts on display in his latest work.
  • Gold Coast’s own Helena Merten stars as the show’s Running Woman, an acrobatic performance that will have you at the edge of your seat.
  • LUZIA goes on tour through Australia, hitting Brisbane as its 4th stop before departing for Sydney. Don’t miss out on an experience of a lifetime!

LUZIA, light and water, is a unique tale that takes audiences from an old movie set to the ocean to a desert to a jungle, and beyond. Like fading into a dream, the show draws you in from an urban setting and gently guides you through the ages, from past and present to future, from reality into the unknown. Cirque du Soleil’s latest offering is a testament to the company’s ability to continue to reinvent itself. While its previous season saw its artists perform on ice, this season takes on water, the element of healing, rebirth, inspiration, dreams, and more. This season, under the Big Top in Brisbane, watch the company’s Cyr wheel artists twirl and spin under the rain as they show you the beauty and spirit of the Mexican people.
