A new production and a first for both the Mann and the Russian National Orchestra is Cirque de la Symphonie. The evening will showcase a troupe of aerial flyers and acrobats, marrying the magic of cirque and orchestra in the Mann’s pavilion. Many of the Cirque de la Symphonie performers are alumni of Cirque du Soleil, and all are Russian. They will perform to the music of Russia’s greatest composer under the direction of conductor Mikhail Tatarnikov (debut) in the Orchestra’s only East Coast stop.
