"Whimsy and wit, childlike wonder and adult elan....and above all her humor simply invite our delight." —The Boston Globe

"Awesome….It's been a long time since I sat through a show with my mouth literally agape." —Boston Herald

"Dreamlike and enchanting...Aurélia’s Oratorio is akin to living inside a glass of champagne: for an hour and a half, reality itself seems effervescent." —Edge Boston

Behind the red velvet curtain lies a topsy-turvy world of surreal surprises, tricks, and transformations, where dreams come to life and the impossible happens before your very eyes….

Aurélia Thierrée was first seen on the A.R.T. stage as a young girl, performing in the Cirque Imaginaire with her parents.  Now an actress and acrobat in her own right, Aurélia has charmed audiences around the world with this dazzling display of stage illusion, inspired by the magic of music hall and circus, and co-created with her mother Victoria Thierrée Chaplin.

An ideal holiday treat for the whole family, suitable for children 8 to 100.
