The classic power struggle of old-meets-new has been reinterpreted through today’s lens — including ew costumes and set design, a renewed acrobatic vocabulary, and new musical arrangements — to ensure it is as inspiring now as it was at the time of its creation in 1994. As classics often do, the show explores themes that remain relevant despite the passage of time — the quest for power, the thirst for change, and the triumph of light over darkness. Carried by an intangible wind of change, an emerging movement strives to shake the established order, instilling hope and renewal to bring light and harmony to their world. With its joyful spirit, Alegría is a vital, energizing force driven by a thirst for a brighter world.

With its signature songs, acrobatics and memorable characters that have helped define the Cirque du Soleil aesthetic, Alegría: In a New Light is the reincarnation of a classic, reinterpreted for the age, and rekindled to inspire fans—old and new alike. "It was important for us to highlight the immense impact that Alegría has had on our fans as well as our company. Audiences and employees alike have asked for its return for years, and what better way to do so than through the celebration of its 25-year anniversary," said Yasmine Khalil, Chief Executive Producer.
