MSC Cruises divulged details of the two Cirque du Soleil at Sea
shows that will be performed on the new MSC Bellissima.
The shows will be called SYMA -- Sail Beyond Imagination and
VARELIA -- Love in Full Color, and will be performed exclusively for MSC
Bellissima guests, following its launch in March 2019.
SYMA takes guests on the epic journey of a young sailor,
brimming with imagination. He braves the elements, plunges into troubled waters
and discovers the mysterious island of his dreams, populated by surreal and
colorful creatures.
VARELIA puts a futuristic twist on a traditional medieval
tale about the courtship between a princess with distinctive violet skin and a
charming hero who is blind. Their romance is thwarted by a villain who, in a
fit of madness, kidnaps the royal. With the help of his friends, the hero
formulates a plan to rescue his beloved.
SYMA and VARELIA are the third and fourth of eight original
Cirque shows to be produced for MSC. The first two debuted on the MSC
Meraviglia in June 2017.
The Bellissima's maiden voyage departs Southampton, England,
on March 4.
