“Corteo” is one of the main and oldest shows that was set up to return to the Forum in Inglewood, California.

Corteo, is an Italian word that means “courtship.” A grand procession and festive parade imagined by a clown with awesome acrobatics. A theatrical world of comedy and spontaneity situated in a mysterious dream full of passion, elegance and power between heaven and earth. Here, the magic mixes spontaneity, joy and emotions based on fantasies full of tenderness.

The clown imagines his own funeral in a carnivalesque atmosphere. The show highlights the strength and weakness of the clown, as well as his wisdom and his delicacy, to illustrate that portion of humanity that lives with us. Music, mischievous and lyrical successively, takes Corteo through a celebration between the burlesque and the real.

Definitely, is a show full of gymnastics, and tons of acrobatics, all to be complimented by outstanding live music.
