If you didn’t catch Cirque Du Soleil when they came through town last year, there’s no need to fret. Local promoter Fusion Friendly is presenting the next best thing at Cozmic on Saturday: Cirque Du Eugene! For the third year running, this amalgamated variety show — which features various carnival-esque gymnastic acts performed by Bounce Gymnastics — will take the stage and boggle some minds. Be it belly dance or hoop dance, aerial acrobatics or theatrical floor work, the level of talent, determination and skill that goes into a performance such as this is astonishing, and the outcome is sure to be equally remarkable.

Cirque Du Eugene takes place at 8pm Saturday, March 23, at Cozmic; $5, kids under 12 FREE.
