Inspired by James Cameron’s sci-fi flick Avatar, TORUK – The First Flight aims to “transport you to the world of Pandora in a visually stunning live setting” The latest Cirque du Soleil production, the show features “a riveting fusion of cutting-edge visuals, puppetry and stagecraft buoyed by a soaring cinematic score.” We went backstage earlier today to observe rehearsals and take these photos.
