Last night I had the pleasure of attending the media opening for Cirque du Soleil’s newest Big Top show, VOLTA, Atlanta. The weather was perfect, the city was sparkling, and the Moscow Mule’s were tasty.
I’ve been attending Cirque du Soleil shows since 2007. As a longtime fan, I have asked myself if the franchise can really impress me following iconic shows like Joya, Beatles LOVE, and Michael Jackson ONE. I can honestly say they all bring something unique and special to the table.
VOLTA Atlanta is no exception, and it’s playing at the Big Top through January 5th, 2020.
VOLTA Atlanta – A Post Apocalyptic Vibe and a Journey of Self Discovery
VOLTA is a brand new Big Top show and brand new to Atlanta so, I was pretty excited to see this performance. It’s the only Cirque du Soleil show that features extreme sports like BMX.
There’s no doubt that every Cirque show is magical, but right away the costuming caught my eye. It was shiny, it was quirky and in my opinion, had a very captivating post-apocalyptic vibe to it. Imagine the Hunger Games meets Tank Girl.
That’s exactly how the costuming done by Emmy Award winner Zaldy Goco, (famous for his work with Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Gwen Stefani and on RuPaul’s Drag Race) made me feel about VOLTA. I couldn’t stop staring at it.
