See Cirque du Soleil®’s Zarkana with Jefferson Recreation

Cirque du Soleil® is unveiling its latest highly acrobatic spectacle, premiering exclusively at the iconic Radio City Music Hall in New York City; and the Jefferson Township Recreation Department is planning a bus trip for an 8 pm performance on Thursday, June 16 to see it!  

Directed by the internationally acclaimed François Girard (The Red Violin, Silk), the show takes place in an abandoned theatre and follows a magician who has lost his love and with her, his magic has disappeared. As he cries and begs the gods for her return, he is plunged into a world inhabited by surreal creatures. The diverse cast of 71 international artists transports the audience into a fantastical and suspenseful world, blurring the boundaries between the real and imaginary.     

The tickets are $99 per person and include reserved orchestra seating in Section 300, Rows A to D, transportation by deluxe motor coach, and driver gratuity.  The bus leaves the Camp Jefferson parking lot at 81 Weldon Road at 4:30 sharp and then departs from New York City promptly at 9:45 PM for the return trip home.  Since the performance is at 8 pm, attendees will have some time to do a little sightseeing, shopping, and have some dinner before the 8 pm curtain.
