  Cirque du Soleil
  Bicentennial Park [Map]
  Sun., August 17
  Cirque du Soleil is back in Miami with its latest touring production CORTEO. Corteo is a grand procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown. The clown pictures his own funeral taking place in a carnival atmosphere, watched over by quietly caring angels. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music, by turns lyrical and playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality. You don't want to miss this!!
