Varekai was a Cirque du Soleil touring production that premiered in Montréal in April 2002.[1] Its title means "wherever" in the Romani language, and the show is an "acrobatic tribute to the nomadic soul".[2]
The show begins with the Greek myth of Icarus, picking up where the myth leaves off, reimagining the story of what happened to Icarus after he flew too close to the sun and fell from the sky. In Varekai, rather than drowning in the sea below him, Icarus lands in a lush forest full of exotic creatures.
