PHOTO CALL: Mario Lopez, Vanessa Hudgens, Kevin Dillon, Neil Patrick Harris at Cirque du Soleil's Iris Opening

"A poetic phantasmagoria inspired by the world of cinema," according to notes, "Iris presents an imaginary journey through the evolution of cinema – from the foundations of the art form to the bustle of the soundstage – through optical effects and film genres. Iris transposes into a language of dance and acrobatics all of cinema’s splendor, inventiveness and, above all, its sense of wonder."

Here is a look at the starry red carpet:
