This week, we were invited to the Big Top as Cirque du Soleil is getting back to the business of giving us thrills and chills! Present were the new President and CEO Stéphane Lefebvre and Artistic Director Jennifer Lécuyer to introduce the return of Cirque's operations and the introduction of the three scenes we were going to see. We found out that Cirque is getting ready to fulfill a ten year engagement in the Old Port bringing to life some of its classics as well as new creations.
KOOZA is a Cirque classic that features the most insane acts you can tolerate. Take the jumping board, featured on the short video on the left, it's not that the artists simply jump to staggering heights, some are wearing leg extension sticks and using stilts! Then there is the unicyclist duo, below, where the man is pedalling while the woman is accomplishing stunning acrobatics on his shoulders that leave me breathless! On the menu for our press tour, there was also the straps act when a lovely young acrobat flies dangerously high pirouetting about.
The Old Port installations are ready to greet visitors and this includes the big wheel and the food trucks! A must see event for this summer!
