Cirque du Soleil  will debut "IRIS" at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles, California in July 2011 with a movie-themed show for the millions of tourists who flock to Hollywood Boulevard each year. The show will run for 10 years and will take a six-week break during the city's Academy Award season.

This new production is a lyrical, fanciful, kinetic foray into the seventh art. Bringing together dance, acrobatics, live video, filmed sequences and animation, the show takes spectators on a fantastic voyage through the history of cinema and its genres, taking them into the heart of the movie-making process. From illustration to animation, black and white to colour, silent films to talkies, fixed shots to swooping camera movements, spectators witness the poetic construction/deconstruction of this art as an object and as a way of transcending reality.
