Country, Theater, & Acrobatics
Cirque du Soleil's first ever country music show is coming
to New Orleans this fall. Songblazers will explore the history of country music and
pay tribute to some of the greats of the genre. This brand new show is coming
to NOLA September 21 and 22 at the Saenger Theatre.
The show is being created by Cirque du Soleil in conjunction
with Universal Music Group Nashville. Songblazers will premier in Nashville
July 2024 before heading out to start its seven city tour. This is Cirque du
Soleil's first theater based show. Sam Williams, a country artist and grandson
of Hank Williams, has created an original song for the show titled "Carnival
Heart."
Audiences will enjoy a narrative telling of country music's history and some of it's key leaders, all accompanied by the music they love. The
show will also include jaw dropping acrobatics, arial tricks, and all the flair
of a Cirque du Soleil performance.
