Sit back, relax, open your mind
and your soul, and let your senses feast
on this garden of delights.

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 is a touchy subject for many people, but it is something that is comprised of many things: romanticism, sensuality, love, friendship, brotherhood ... the show we are creating will celebrate all of those things... Our goal is to shatter the stereotypes of what is beautiful . . . To make the audience more accepting when they leave the show."

The production of 40 performers and 10 musicians boldly go where no Cirque show has gone before in more ways than one. "Zumanity is a show for lovers, would-be lovers and those simply fascinated by love." And it is the first Cirque du Soleil production to have an age limit: self-rated "R" - 18 and over only.

Who set that age limit? The seven wise and gifted men and women who are responsible for creating this zoo did. You'll find a mixture of old and new in the creative ranks who came together to bring out the provocative side of Cirque du Soleil: René Richard Cyr (Writer and Director), Andrew Watson (Director of Creation), Theirry Mugler (Costume Designer), Stéphane Roy (Set Designer), Simon Carpentier (Composer), Debra Brown (Choreographer) and Luc Lafortune (Lighting Designer).
