Do you feel the need to escape and get away from it all? We aren’t talking about a dream vacation here, but being stuck in one of the toughest prisons in history. Will the star of Cirque Italia be able to survive in the infamous Alcatraz? You can find out in Brandon from Thursday, May 27 to Sunday, June 6.

Cirque Alcatraz features riveting aerial acts, jaw-dropping stunts, incredible displays of human strength and balance, mystifying illusions and comedy while guiding the audience through the narrative.
