Cirque du Soleil presents an acrobatic performance that is filled with laughter and exuberance. Corteo showcases the death and rebirth of a clown named Mauro, whose burial is amid a carnival atmosphere and attended by tender angels in white. The clown Mauro is guided through beautiful contrasts of grandeur with personal; poetic with mischievous; and perfection with imperfection. The show emphasizes the strength and vulnerability of the clown, as well as his knowledge and generosity that represents the humanity within. This emotional performance will have you crying, laughing, and appreciating the humanity within all of us. Embark on a parade from one life to the next from Thursday, February 22-Sunday, February 25. ■ raisingcanesrivercenter.com
