49. Kurios

Week 49  6/26/16

I've long wanted to see a Cirque du Soliel show. This summer, they brought Kurios - Cabinet of Curiosities to Massachusetts. I saw a 30% discount and bought some tickets. The show was great, but the location (Suffolk Downs) was very out-of-the way for us and a dreary area. And concession prices were higher than I could have imagined. As for parking, there were acres of unused parking lots nearby, but they roped off two areas and charged $20 to park. That seemed like a real rip-off. I could see charging to park in a congested city, but I think that even in the city most performances are more likely to give parking vouchers or discounts for ticket-holders.



We especially liked the acrobatic acts, including the one in this picture. The large ensemble parts were lots of fun too.

Here is a picture I took from the Cirque website ...



... and two I took before the show started and they made an announcement about no photography.
