Toruk by Cirque du Soleil

Inspired by James Cameron’s record-breaking movie AVATAR, Cirque du Soleil’s touring show TORUK – The First Flight will be presented at Sportpaleis Antwerpen from 13 to 17 March 2019, as part of a global tour in arenas around the world.

The show

Inspired by James Cameron’s AVATAR, TORUK – The First Flighttransports you to the world of Pandora in a visually stunning live setting. Experience a storytelling odyssey through a new world of imagination, discovery, and possibility.

Through a riveting fusion of cutting-edge visuals, puppetry and stagecraft buoyed by a soaring cinematic score, Cirque du Soleil applies its unique signature style to James Cameron’s imaginary world and “makes the bond” between two kindred artistic visions that capture the imagination.

This live immersive experience also bears the distinct signature of directors and multimedia innovators Michel Lemieux and Victor Pilon. It is a living ode to the Na’vi’s symbiotic coexistence with nature and their belief in the basic interconnectedness of all living things.

Narrated by a “Na’vi Storyteller” and populated by unforgettable characters, TORUK – The First Flight is a mythical tale set thousands of years before the events depicted in the film AVATAR, and before any humans ever set foot on Pandora.
