Take a sneak peek at a creative preview of the immersive production (Cirque du Soleil)

Cirque du Soleil extends its presence to the Mayan Riviera with the opening of JOYÀ, which premiered this past weekend at the brand new, customed-designed, 600-seat Cirque du Soleil Theater near The Grand Mayan resort. Directed by Martin Genest and Richard Dagenais, this is Cirque’s 36th production since its inception 30 years ago.

Behind the veil of the lush Mayan jungle exists a world of crystal-clear water pools, coral rocks, and rich flora and fauna – an oasis within an oasis. A wooden walkway leads to a theater perched above a massive lagoon cascading in a majestic waterfall. This is the world of JOYÀ.

Inspired by the fabulous migratory journey of the monarch butterfly in which life is passed from one generation to the next to ensure the survival of the species, JOYÀ follows the adventures of a rebellious teenage girl whisked away to a mysterious jungle in her grandfather’s fantastical world.
