About

After completing its first summer in New York City and wowing over 500,000 guests, Zarkana™ by Cirque du Soleil® is returning to Radio City Music Hall for the Summer of 2012!

This epic spectacle plunges audiences into a fantastically twisted world where international artists perform highly-acrobatic feats, heightened by original live music. Be there as Zarkana transforms the grandest stage in the world into a world of unreality as only Cirque du Soleil could imagine.

Zarkana is an acrobatic rock opera that blends circus arts with the surreal to create a world where physical virtuosity rubs shoulders with the strange.

The story follows Zark, a magician who has lost his powers - and the love of his life - in an abandoned theatre populated by a motley collection of off-the-wall characters and incomparable acrobats. He runs into the Mutants, four sirens as sinister as they are fabulous, who are determined to divert him from his quest.

Zarkana is a visual vortex set in a slightly twisted musical and acrobatic fantasy universe where, little by little, chaos and craziness give way to festivity and love regained.

    Meh

    by Tarynleeta on 5/11/15ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    I've been to every cirque show in Las Vegas. I'm convinced Zarkana is comprised of people who were rejected from the other shows. Acrobats were uncomfortably shaky. There was too much downtime between acts, which they filled with clown pieces that got old quickly. I was highly disappointed by Zarkana. Will not repeat this show, and would not recommend this to friends. And I LOVE the cirque shows! I was really hoping this one would be good, but it's just not on par with the others. The theater is beautiful though.

    One of the best Cirque du Soleil's shows, with all that is expect from it.

    not the best cirque show I've been too!

    by Anonymous on 5/4/15ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    While this was a good show, it was my 3rd cirque show (I also saw O after this). Out of the 4 shows this was definately the least pleasing... my first two cirque shows were traveling ones... and they blew this away. I'd expect better out of a permanent show. the Performers almost seemed as if they were the secondary crew. I guess what I am saying is that the level of polish that a cirque show has was just not there. Singer and band were amazing though!

    Too much French circus clown humor. Show did not appear to have a storyline. Clown skits between performances too long and not funny. Cirque performers were amazing, clowns…not so much! It seemed like the producers of all the Cirque shows had extra performers so they threw them in this show and married it with average music and boring clowns.

    I have seen most of the Cirque Du Soleil shows and this was the worst one I fell asleep in the show it was that bad and my husband wanted his money back. The performers were messing up on stunts and it was just terrible.

    Was far below our expectations. Seen many Cirque Du Soleil shows and was one of our least favorites.

    ZARKANA WAS VERY ENTERTAINING!!

    by CRAIGRN on 1/30/15ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    Having seen nearly every show on the strip (Zumanity, Mystere, O, Love, Sigfreid &Roy, Machael Jackson's ONE, La Reve, Ka) and even saw the disasterous Elvis, The replacement show for Elvis (Zarkana) was a very entretaining adventure. They probably need some work on the blocking to cue the audience when the performeis giving the que for audiance applause. It is difinitely a HUGE step up from ELVIS. My girffriend and I went opening week and while many of the acts had very orinigal concepts and were visually interesting, the tie in to ELVIS was superficial at best. I'm sure several heads rooled after a dud was placed the crown jewel of the MGM families property. I think Elvis was to distant of a memeory for crowds to be attracted. Having said that, Zarkana had several acts that were above average. The "twins" who did the aerial ballet over the heads of the audieance was simply tasteful, erotic gold. Would I see it again?? Yes. But with an oversaturation of CDS show now, the next offering would need to be so unique, NOONE could say "oh I saw something simliar in a different show." I am not a very creative person, but CDS is capable of much more that a 3 star show and they have. Michael Jackson's One and Beatles Love are two good expamples. Do more like that, in that caliber!!!

    Awesome!

    by Dodik on 1/19/15ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    All throughout the show, I was on the edge of my seat becuase the stunts are exciting and breathtaking. The set was incredible. The costumes are colorful. The clowns were very funny. A must see show.

    Zarkana blew me away!

    by lrensi on 1/12/15ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    The amazement starts with the theater. It was incredible. Each and every act was both incredibly stylish and thrilling. I was especially impressed with the Atherton Twins. Their act was as beautiful as it was mesmerizing.

    Zarkana was AWESOME

    by cherry615 on 12/30/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    Zarkana was such a great show! It had live music with an actual band playing and live vocals as well! I got the furthest seats and was up on the balcony but it didn't matter, the view was great and I was able to see everything! I would definitely recommend this show if you are into excitement and fantastic music!

    greeat acrobatics

    by grisgris on 12/27/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    Zarcana was a fun show with lots of acrobatics. The clowns were funny. Great upbeat music and singing. Only disappointment is that the spider appears only once and it is just a minor part of the show. There isn't a real story line like in KA so it is just more random fun pieces.

    Zarkan

    by Stagerig on 11/24/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    I have been to several Cirque shows and I like this one the best. I like that it shows off the performers talents rather than the massive amounts of hardware and technology as in some Cirque shows.

    Zarkana Vegas

    by Zorba0332 on 10/29/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    The show itself resembles more of a circus than “O” did. There is not a theme or a base line story but more of a circus feel of acrobatics, amazing acts of strength and balance. There is a lot of humor and character with the clowns and provide quite a distraction while changing sets. This is the most comfortable show I have been too as far as the seating and getting into and out of the show area. Aria does a nice job! I may not go to see Zarkana again but I would go see a show at the Aria!

    Zarkana

    by DocSitter on 10/13/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    I found the whole production boering and over priced. It was so loud I had to stuff kleenex in my ears and that was not enough so I had to leave the theatre.

    Boring.

    by RockAl on 10/7/14ARIA Resort & Casino - Las Vegas

    Two or three acts were great. The rest of the show was a big bore. The singer did a nice job.And people were coming in late all show and it seemed as though everyone was allowed to get up and leave and come back. Hard to watch a show that way.
