Cirque du Soleil’s Iris clears Kodak Theatre for Oscars

The stage of the Kodak Theater will be returned to its original glory as stage crew breaks down the set for the Cirque du Soleil resident show "Iris" at the Kodak Theater at Hollywood and Highland in the first weeks of February to make way for the 84th Academy Awards on Feb. 26. The heaviest and biggest stage props are first to be removed, but the entire Kodak Theater stage and offices have to be vacated to accommodate the Oscars.
