Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Watching a Cirque du Soliel show is a bit like lucid dreaming — you’re in control, sure, but it’s still surreal and exciting and half the time you have no idea what the hell’s going on. Varekai, a new production from the Cirque squad, carries on with this tradition by taking us deep inside a mystical forest at the summit of a volcano, where a young Icarus encounters a kaleidoscopic array of fantastic creatures. Dream or not, you won’t want to wake up.
Varekai backflips into downtown Phoenix for a seven-show run from February 18 through 22 at Talking Stick Resort Arena, 201 East Jefferson Street. Tickets start at $40. Call 602-379-7800 or visit www.ticketmaster.com for more.
