The performance tells “the true story of one man’s real-life nightmare of wrongful conviction and subsequent confinement after being sentenced to life in Alcatraz prison,” according to a news release about the show.
Cirque Italia opened in 2012 and includes aerial acts, stunts, “incredible displays of human strength and balance, mystifying illusions and hilarious comedy while guiding the audience through the narrative,” according to the news release.
The performances are intended for adult audiences. Any child aged 13 and older should be accompanied by an adult. No one under age 13 will be admitted.
