Cirque du Soleil Bus Trip on December 8

The show features a cast of high-energy urban street characters, including acrobats, dancers, and giant marionettes. The show's main character embarks on a journey to an imaginary Nordic world called Wintuk with three companions - a female Shaman who is lost in the city, a timid young man called Wimpy destined to discover his courage, and the shadow of a young girl - in search of snow in order to bring it back where it belongs. For more about this wonderful show, please check out the following website: www.cirquedusoleil.com.

The cost is $45 for ESU students and $65 for guests and includes admission to the show and round trip coach bus transportation. Tickets may be purchased at the University Center, Second Floor, Student Activities Complex between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:15 p.m., Monday through Friday.
