Zumanity [zü'man-eh-tee] is described as "an intense visit to a
world where human inhibitions are both unveiled and discarded,
where style and intense sensual passion share an uncommon
stage." Cirque recently offered this definition of the word:
"n. n. Neologism dating from 2003, contraction of the words
"zoo" and "humanity." 1. A human zoo. 2. A new form of
eroticism which blends dance movement, acrobatics and
beautiful bodies with the sensual caress of the human voice
and the pulse of exotic rhythms. 3. An exploration that
awakens the most primal urges in human beings."
Zumanity is a stunning exploration of the hidden
forces behind desire, and a celebration of human diversity. It's
sensual, sexual, and in your face. This show will awaken the
most primal urges of generations x, y and z to a new form of
eroticism, which lends dance movement, skillful acrobatics and
beautiful bodies of many shapes and sizes with the sensual
caress of the human voice and the pulsation of exotic rhythms
and sultry tones.
Sexuality, a touchy subject for many, is comprised of many
things: romanticism, sensuality, love, friendship, and brotherhood.
Zumanity celebrates all of those things, to shatter the stereotypes
of what is beautiful, to be more accepting of differences in
human sexuality. Zumanity is a show for lovers, would-be lovers
and those simply fascinated by love.
Don't be intimitated - come, sit back... relax. Enjoy
yourself. Open your mind and your soul and let your
senses feast on this Garden of Delights.
