KOOZA | National Harbor Maryland

KOOZA by Cirque du Soleil at The National Harbor

Time is rapidly approaching, as Kooza makes it its rounds around the country, the day they set up shop in the Metro area will be here shortly. If you loved Zumanity like I did, then you will be in for a treat with Kooza.

In KOOZA by Cirque du Soleil, a character named the Innocent does just that, after encountering a King, a Trickster, a Pickpocket, and one Obnoxious Tourist and his Bad Dog.

Prepare to be stunned as you see an acrobat balance on top of eight teetering chairs, and watch performers leap through the air on stilts. And along with The Innocent, you can confront what it means to really be human. Just be glad you don't have to enter the Wheel of Death.

It all opens at the Plateau at National Harbor on October 30. Get your tickets now, you already know how these Cirque du Soleil events sell out.

Entrees range from barbecue chicken ($13.75) to a rack of St. Louis-style ribs ($23.75) to an 8-ounce filet mignon ($26.75). Desserts include fried cheesecake ($5.75) that just sounds like calorie roller coaster.
