• Cirque du Soleil ECHO is the 20th Big Top creation from Cirque du Soleil and its 51st overall.
• The show explores themes of connection, intention, and the symbiotic unions between humans and animals.
• The mysterious CUBE at the heart of the show is essentially the size of a 2-story apartment building!

Cirque du Soleil ECHO beautifully blends story with a spectacular range of acrobatic performances, all taking place on, in, around, or throughout the mysterious CUBE. You’ll witness performances like bungee straps, banquine, icarian games, double hair suspension, slackwire and triple teeterboards.

FUTURE is the protagonist of Cirque du Soleil's ECHO and sees the world through the eyes of a new generation. With her playful companion, Ewai "the Dog," she wanders through an enigmatic CUBE, setting in motion a journey full of experiences, discoveries, hope, and connection.

Ewai "the Dog," a symbol of unconditional love, is FUTURE's selfless companion, and his only wish in life is to make her happy. With his playful and curious nature, Ewai "the Dog" helps FUTURE form unique connections with the animal characters throughout her journey.

Productivity is the driving force behind the comedic duo DOUBLE TROUBLE. They represent an era of industrialization, and their appearance marks the beginning of the extraction of the CUBE. Don’t miss how they recruit other characters (and maybe even you) to help them stack boxes, build structures, and achieve their ambitious goals.

THE FOSSORIAL is an introverted creature that lives alone underground. Any action that takes place on the surface directly affects its home and livelihood, so from time to time, you'll see it poke its head out to see what's going on.

In a mesmerizing opening act of discovery and unity, a troupe of delicate paper animals glide along the surfaces of the Cube. From atop the towering structure to along its vertical edges, the graceful and intricate dance of the paper animals evokes a sense of fragility and interconnectedness among all living beings.

Suspended by the treads of knowledge and enlightenment, the Cartographer is a bright and luminous intellectual. With effortless expression, he writes a new story upon the Cube - not of nature and animals,, but of logic, science and reason. With each strokes and each leap, the Cartographer charts a new course for humankind, guiding us towards uncharted territories of possibility. This fascinating new figure excites Future, but the animals aren't so certain.

Two acrobats launch into a dizzying display of flips and rotations, their synchronized movement mimicking the rhythm of a machine. As the energy builds, their bodies become the driving force behind the extraction of boxes from The CUBE, propelling the narrative forward with mechanical intensity and raw momentum.

The color paper people burst onto the scene in a stunning fusion of banquine and Korean cradle. With FUTURE's encouragement and the ever-pulsing cube, they leap, spin, and catch one another in midair. What begins as chaos transforms into joyful collaboration, as they discover the strength of unity and the importance of play.

In a tense tableau of double slackwire, two animals teeter on the brink of axtinction. As they traverse a desolate landscapre, each step a testament to their resilience, FUTURE is struck by the fragility of life and their indomitable will to survive. Through their struggles, strengh and grace, she is reminded of the delicate balance that sustainsus all, and sets out on a new mission.

Once torn apart by the changes around them, humans and animals cautiously reunite to rebuild the CUBE. Slowly, carefully, they breathe life back into the structure, working together to replace its boxes and rebuild what was lost. Meanwhile, FUTURE inscribes a new vsion for tomorrow.

In an act of love and gratitude, the DOG gets carried away playing catch, and breaks into a fascinating juggling act. That’s when he encounters the FOSSORIAL, who adds several objects to the DOG’s hands, forcing him to get more and more creative with how he juggles it all.

The FOSSORIAL puts his flexibility and adaptability on full display in a contortionist act that will leave audiences stunned when the artist dislocates his limbs to maintain his loving embrace with FUTURE and Ewai The Dog.

When FUTURE looks up to see the final missing box flying in the air, she realizes it’s up to her to place the missing piece back into the CUBE. The Washington trapeze descends towards her in a poetic moment, as the animals return to stage to orchestrate her flight.

In a high-flying performance, the paper animals celebrate connection and coexistence through an exhilarating triple teeterboard act. As the playful birds take flight from their teeterboards, they inject a palpable energy into the air, overjoyed by the feeling of togetherness.

ECHO’s music transcends genres, with 15 eclectic tracks blending pop, electronic, vocal harmonies, and classical influences. Rich, layered textures reflect the evolving relationship between humans and the natural world, shaping a soundscape that is both immersive and emotionally charged.

True to Cirque du Soleil’s tradition, the show features a live band where every musician sings, joined by three lead vocalists. Together, they create a vibrant and living musical universe that elevates the experience from start to finish.
