Banana Shpeel, A New Twist on Vaudeville by Cirque du Soleil

November 19, 2009 — January 03, 2010 at The Chicago Theatre

Exclusive Engagement - Chicago Premiere

Banana Shpeel is a roller-coaster mix of styles that blends comedy with tap, hip hop, eccentric dance and slapstick, all linked by a hilarious narrative that ignites a succession of wacky adventures. This is not circus, or a musical or a variety show, or even vaudeville. It is Banana Shpeel! Get ready for an exciting fusion of genres, directed by David Shiner — accomplished comedic actor, Broadway creator and director of KOOZA from Cirque du Soleil.

Take a sneak peek behind the scenes of a brand new genre for Cirque du Soleil. From the arrival of the artists in Montreal until its preview at The Chicago Theatre in November 2009, follow the creation process of this new production HERE.
