The world-famous Cirque du Soleil will perform one of their most prestigious shows on Mar. 18, to Mar. 22,  at the Don Haskins Center. A performance full of dreamlike characters that inhabit a magical forest promises to awe the audience. Filled with fantasy and elegance, it’s fit for all ages.

Tannia Rangel, freshman linguistics major, said she attended a Cirque du Soleil performance at El Paso three years ago and was mesmerized.

“It was truly amazing,” Rangel said. “I will never forget all the beautiful performers and the music and all the lights that seemed to enchant me, it was incredible, it is a show that was truly worth every penny.”

The story revolves around a cast of flamboyantly dressed characters living in a mystical forest. Some say, Cirque du Soleil never fails at leaving an impression within the audience, always performing with a grace that attracts people from all sides of the spectrum.

There will be exotic and mystical music and contortionists will perform during the show.

Cirque du Soleil is all about gymnastics and dance that transmit a story to the audience. Colorful characters levitate above the stage by a seemingly effortless grip and people make their entrance by landing on the stage.

Prices range from $60 to $380, afternoon and late night performances are both available.
