This show is a new immersive fantasy spectacle; thanks to its unprecedented seat design, the audience is divided into two groups, allowing them to watch at the same time while sometimes facing each other to enjoy the same scene, and at other times facing away to follow separate storylines, which is why it is renowned as something worth watching twice in a lifetime. ·A rich variety of artistic expressions You may have seen acrobatics, magic, skating, dancing, martial arts, or the traditional arts of various countries in other places, but you haven’t yet seen new art forms created through the perfect integration of these elements.

TIPS: Founded in Quebec, Canada, in 1984, Cirque du Soleil has, over the years, consistently delivered groundbreaking shows that challenge people’s perceptions of circus performances. From performing under large tents at first, to now having a presence around the world, Cirque du Soleil speaks the language common to all of humanity; it represents our wildest dreams and the exciting rhythm that drives each of our heartbeats. Breaking with the past, there are no animal acts; instead, tents, clowns, and classic acrobatics are retained, combined with ever-evolving technology and various new forms of performance to redefine the art of circus. These mean that Cirque du Soleil is not just a show of stunts; it is a blend of light and shadow, energy and innovation, a window into a new world, as well as an unforgettable sensory experience. Bring the most ‘off-limits’ entertainment to every corner of the world. Affected by the pandemic, Cirque du Soleil, the world’s largest theater production company and a Canadian national treasure, faced a series of setbacks around the world, forcing it to temporarily lay off 95% of its employees. Today, the Hangzhou-based show “X: A World of Fantasy” has become Cirque du Soleil’s first show to be revived on a global scale. It returned officially on June 3, and on June 11 it held another charity performance in honor of the heroes who fought against the pandemic. “It only creates masterpieces… Each piece takes two to three years to create, and it’s made through extremely meticulous manual work. It’s not something produced on an industrial scale like movies or records; it’s entirely handcrafted. Its purpose is to create dreams for people, so the more fantastical, the broader and more imaginative, the better. ” —— Strange Tales by Gao Xiaosong By Gao Xiaosong: “The 6 billion people in the world are, in essence, just like those circus performers, each with their own ulterior motives. As long as people can vividly imagine animals and angels with special skills in the circus, then there’s nothing lacking – time doesn’t intend to prolong the story; two hours of revelation is enough to convey everything, yet I really don’t want to see them finish performing.” ” ——\"Fourteen Creative Lessons for Life,\" by Li Xinpin, author
