Cirque du Soleil's Corteo in Calgary

Guys,

I thought you would all like to know about a special offer that was passed along to us through ACAD's mailing system that should apply to all students interested...

Unfortunately, lemme just say right off the bat that should y'all be interested, I won't be joining you--I'm already part of a block group of ACADians going, since it reached us first. However, don't let that stop you!

Anyhow, one of Cirque du Soleil's new(er) shows, Corteo, is coming to Calgary, starting late July to mid-August. The special promotion is for student tickets--what's required is a "valid student ID at entrance." Obviously, all eligible, right?

Anyhow, the tickets are only $34! Believe me, that is a GREAT deal. Granted, it only applies to their lowest grade of seats (4 sections of tier 3 to choose from, I think), but unless you want a better ticket at near or even exceeding $100.... Note that "Student and senior discounts on regular tickets are available for weekday performances only (Tuesday to Thursday, and Friday at 4:00 p.m.)."

Don't let that worry you. Having went to Alegria when it came here with my siblings, it was quite expensive for average seats (not on purpose--the tickets were all snatched up really quickly). Was it still amazing? Yes. I'm not sure anything could much diminish Cirque--it's a treat even to be there!

Max number of tickets per purchase is 19, seats fill first come first serve. Again, they go fast, so if anyone is at all interested, get the group rounded up quick! The show takes place again at the Currie Barracks area, and there are usually afternoon and evening showings.
