Acclaimed Russian Cirque performer, Oleg Izossimov, assumes the character of Caruso, and is known for the understated elegance of his performance style, however, this work of art is vastly more than a mere representation of Oleg’s stage performance. We all know that great artistry reaches a point where it seems perfectly natural – the singer, the actor, the dancer – can all reach a level of accomplishment where the viewer is so beguiled by the created illusion that the art seems to drop from the heavens fully formed.
