Cirque DโOr, the popular Chinese acrobatics and aerial arts show touring the country, pulls into Fox Tucson Theatre for a pair of shows this weekend.
The show, described as an โelectrifying and mesmerizing โฆ thrill-a-minute spectacular,โ is akin to the popular Cirque du Soleil โ a circus full of extraordinary athletes capable of mind-boggling physical feats including wrapping themselves into a pretzel or stacking several performers one body on top of another, four, five high and each stretched out in a different direction to create a shape reminiscent of the star-shaped โjacksโ you played with as a kid.
The Cirque D’Or troupe performs at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 26, and Saturday, Jan. 27, at Fox Tucson Theatre, 17 W. Congress St. Tickets are $30 to $55 through foxtucsontheatre.ticketforce.com or at the box office.
Speaking of Cirque du Soleil, the famed troupe’s first ice show is set to play at Tucson Arena, 260 S. Church Ave., March 14-18. Tickets available at ticketmaster.com.
