Cirque Du Soleil brings new life to hit film AVATAR

DULUTH, Ga. - Cirque du Soleil is one of the most successful performing groups in the world, and Avatar is one of the most successful films ever made.  So what happens when you combine the two?

The answer can be found at the Infinite Energy Arena in Duluth from June 15-19, as “TORUK – The First Flight” takes over for seven performances.  The show is Cirque du Soleil’s 37th production since 1984, and is based on the hit 2009 James Cameron film Avatar.  This production takes place thousands of years before the events of the film, and centers around the Toruk, a vibrant creature in the Pandoran sky.  Performance continues through Sunday, and ticket information can be found here.

Good Day Atlanta’s Paul Milliken spent the morning at the Infinite Energy Center, going behind-the-scenes of this exciting new production.
