Here is a behind the scenes look at Cirque du Soleil which has just opened under the familiar blue-and-yellow big top at Atlantic Station.

Since opening in Montreal in May 2014, “Kurios” has been garnering rave reviews as it performs in cities across the country and Canada. And you can expect “Kurios,” to deliver an awe-inspiring experience.

Set in the latter half of the 19th century, Cirque’s 35th production is named for odd but benevolent characters who inhabit the Seeker’s Cabinet of Curiosities, a fantasy world where, as Cirque’s ad pitches, “seeing is disbelieving.” Expect to see a stunning acrobatic spectacle that will really leave you wondering, how on Earth did they just do that?

March 3-May 8. Various day and evening show times every day except Mondays and a few Tuesdays (check website for details). $35 -$495. Under the blue-and-yellow big top at Atlantic Station. Atlantic Station, 1380 Atlantic Drive N.W., Atlanta. 1-877-9 CIRQUE (1-877-924-7783), www.cirquedusoleil.com/usa/atlanta/kurios/buy-tickets.
