Why Cirque du Soleil circus show Kooza, back in Hong Kong, is ‘edge-of-your-seat stuff'
It has been seven years since Cirque du Soleil last graced Hong Kong with its stunning acrobatic acts, cheeky clowns and death-defying stunts. This month the global entertainment company is back with its circus production Kooza.

Running until July 13 –
the family-friendly show has extended its stay in Hong Kong from its original end date of June 22 – Kooza will be presented at the Central Harbourfront Event Space, where the Cirque team has set up its signature big top.
The show tells the story of the Innocent, a clown pulled into the zany, dynamic world of the Trickster. Thus begins a two-hour spectacle of gravity- and death-defying acts.
Duncan Fisher, the chief show operations officer at Cirque du Soleil, calls Kooza 'the most 'circus' of all our circuses'.
