Don't miss the critically acclaimed touring show from Cirque du Soleil - KOOZA coming to the valley June 8 to 15 under the Big Top at the University of Phoenix stadium in Glendale.

KOOZA tells the story of The Innocent, a melancholy loner in search of his place in the world.

KOOZA is a return to the origins of Cirque du Soleil: It combines two circus traditions - acrobatic performance and the art of clowning. The show highlights the physical demands of human performance in all its splendor and fragility, presented in a colorful mélange that emphasizes bold slapstick humor.

Recently, Cirque Du Soleil’s Artistic Director, Michael G Smith, dropped by the studios to talk about the oncoming production.  Michael spent 15 years as a performer working in theatres around the world, as well as productions in London’s West End before becoming a Director.
