Behind the scenes at Cirque du Soleil’s ‘Kooza’ in Hong Kong

Six years after their last visit, the world’s largest theatrical company, Cirque du Soleil, has returned to Hong Kong with a new daredevil show: Kooza. Opening on Friday, the show runs for six weeks at the Central Harbourfront.

The title is inspired by the Sanskrit word “Koza” which means “box”, “chest”, or “treasure”. Emerging from this magical box is an international cast of 50 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors from 21 countries.
