Join Candide on a whirlwind, globe-trotting adventure packed with satire, romance, and chaos. Guided by the ever-optimistic Pangloss, Candide and his beloved Cunegonde face disaster, danger, and absurdity at every turn.

Set beneath the big top, their journey unfolds in a vibrant circus world filled with:

• Tumbling acrobats
• Soaring aerial performers
• A mysterious ringmaster pulling the strings

As optimism is stretched to its limits and the world spins wildly around them, Voltaire’s sharp wit and biting satire spring to life through the breathtaking music of Leonard Bernstein, composer of West Side Story.
