A magical journey into the invisible: Cirque du Soleil ALIZÉ
Cirque du Soleil ALIZÉ, Cirque du Soleil’s first European resident show, is a never-before-seen fusion of two art forms. Unique acrobatic innovations combine with the techniques of Magie Nouvelle to become an entirely new artistic language: Acromagic. Created specially for the Theater am Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, Cirque du Soleil ALIZÉ invites the audience into its world. Through its acrobatic feats and marvels of invisibility, levitation and holographic technologies, Cirque du Soleil ALIZÉ transforms the theatre into a surreal, poetic universe that envelops the audience.
World-class acrobatics in Berlin, uniquely designed and fused with magic:
Acrobats disappear on stage and fly into the invisible, bringing the story to life in front, around and above the audience. Discover selected acts of the world premiere:
The Wind rises
Powerful and statuesque, the acrobat holds impressive handstands. But as the storm begins to rise, he starts to spin—slowly at first, then faster and faster, until he transforms into a whirling tornado.
Behind the veil
Our four characters vanish and appear in the blink of an eye. Experience Acromagic for the very first time, as invisibility, teleportation and dance merge into a groundbreaking new form of stage art.
The Crossing
Suspended high above the audience, a high wire walker balances in quiet concentration. Fireflies light his way – along a path barely visible.
Planquine
A unique combination of Teeterboard and Banquine. Two classic disciplines combined into something entirely new: world-class acrobats launch each other into the air and form breathtaking human towers.
Show Characters
Lifted by the wind, carried into magic – never seen before
Cirque du Soleil ALIZÉ is set to redefine Berlin as a world-class entertainment destination. Follow the magical journey of four characters, as they explore the space between the real and surreal:
Ariel & Céleste
Like a slackline act, Ariel and Céleste walk a balance while they sway between his grounded pragmatism and her visionary airiness. Ariel brings a sense of stability to the relationship but his fear of the unknown limits him. He can’t let go and trust in life's uncertainties. Céleste is in tune with life’s hidden beauty. But with her head in the clouds, she has trouble making her ideas real.
Air
Withdrawn, dreamy teenager Air is pulled between the magic of childhood and the allure of adulthood’s mysteries. There’s a tension between the desire to explore the world he doesn’t know and the safety of his comfort zone. His journey of exploration will help him reconnect and grow.
Félix
Félix moves through the world as an introvert longing to fit in. But as a surrealist at heart, his journey into the invisible is one of self-acceptance and the discovery of inner strength. Everyone, his experience shows us, has a unique light to share.

Acrobatics and magic blend - for the first time!
Acromagic is a new art form that fuses Circus and Magic so that they work hand in hand to provoke a sense of wonder in the audience. The circus arts push against the boundaries of the possible and magnify visible performances by accomplishing astonishing feats. Magic, on the other hand, works invisibly to weave inexplicable marvels that evoke dreams and ignite the imagination.
