Cirque du Soleil goes country in Charm City

Cirque du Soleil’s first country-themed show is coming to Baltimore!

The Hippodrome Theater hosts the high-flying production featuring acrobatics and aerial displays.

‘Songblazers’ pays tribute to country music legends and rising stars in the industry.

29 artists from 13 countries perform dozens of well-known songs from 1857 to some new hits.

Amid the eye-catching performances is the story of two musicians coming together to embark on a journey through country music.

“We end up going to an old barn dance, singing a few different songs trying to make the perfect song,” says vocalist and banjo player Steve Ray Ladson.

“We get a little carried away; “We’re having a little superstar thing going on, but it all comes down to humble beginnings.”

“I don’t want to give away some of the great songs, but there’s a broken heart, a wagon wheel, Tennessee whiskey,” says Laura-Ann Chong of the Cirque du Soleil entertainment troupe.

“There is a whole mixed segment on the show. It’s such a fun time.”

Production will run from December 20th to December 29th.
