KA is a theatrical masterpiece told through the physical language of Cirque du Soleil. KA is the extraordinary and gravity-defying production that takes adventure to a whole new level! It is the heroic tale of a journey into the world of love and conflict.
Set on a dynamic theatrical landscape, the story of KA is a classic tale of two twins, a brother and sister, who are sent on a treacherous journey and this time we are invited to come along. Black and white face painting and the use of martial arts techniques from all around the world give KA a style similar to that of Japanese Kabuki theater, which is actually where the show gets its name. Actually, KA is unique in that it has influences from not only Japanese culture, but an array of numerous other cultures, as well.
With a cohesive and enthralling plot line, you will be immediately lured in to the show. With over 80 artists bringing the story to life, you will feel as if you have traveled into a fantasy world. There is also plenty of state-of-the-art equipment built into the theater. The stage itself is built to twist and turn. It tilts so actors can climb up and down the stage. At one point, the stage is completely vertical and performers use arrows to swing and flip against their backdrop. What sets KA apart from most shows of its kind, is the way the story changes location. The twins travel through trees, mountains, and even snow storms. Not only that, but KA makes sure that each audience member gets a unique and personalized experience. With speakers built in to each individual headrest in the theater, you will feel as if you have been immersed into the actual plot, yourself. With an poignant soundtrack, you will be able to become attached to the characters and travel with them through their emotional journey.
KA is rich with plot, characters, and a sense of pride and power. This memorable mixture of circus-like performers and enchanting main characters tell a story that will satisfy both seasoned theatergoers and newcomers alike.
