Las Vegas Zumanity Show

ZUMANITY, THE SENSUAL SIDE OF CIRQUE DU SOLEIL, is one of the shows under MGM Resorts International. It is a provocative cabaret-style production with a Cirque du Soleil® twist. On the cutting edge of contemporary Las Vegas entertainment, the adult-themed 90-minute production blends playful innuendo with daring eroticism in the intimate ZUMANITY Theater at New York-New York Hotel & Resort. With ZUMANITY, Cirque du Soleil takes a bold new direction, exploring the full spectrum of human sexuality and intimacy to create a mosaic of love in all forms and from all perspectives. Emceed by ZUMANITY’s “Mistress of Sensuality” Edie (famed drag diva Christopher Kenney) and distinguished by an unconventional culture of artists and candid exposition of eroticism, the production renders a tale of emotional freedom, natural beauty, and acceptance of differences. ZUMANITY is inspired by infinite individuality and variety—a concept embodied by its artists, who come in all shapes, sizes, ages, ethnicity, and genders. Featuring an international cast of 45 performers, the artists of ZUMANITY are more identifiable as individual characters than in any previous Cirque du Soleil production. ZUMANITY’s seductive theme is highlighted by such traditional circus arts as contortion, acrobatics, aerial stunts, and hand-balancing. Sensuality also comes alive on stage through a multicultural variety of dance genres including flamenco, African dance, tango, modern dance, waltz, and striptease. The beauty of the action on stage is enhanced by Cirque du Soleil’s signature visual stimuli including extravagant costumes, gorgeous makeup, exquisite lighting, and special effects. The show unfolds to a beguiling score performed by nine musicians and two singers. The seduction takes place in the 1,262-seat ZUMANITY Theater, a cozy space custom-designed to meet the unique demands of the show, featuring seating options ranging from a romantic duo sofa for two to a solitary cabaret stool or a traditional theater seat.
