Cirque Du Soleil Tickets Information
Cirque Du Soleil
Now days, Circus has a new name and it's Cirque du Soleil. Over the years, Cirque du Soleil has completely transformed the tradition Circus in to something that is diverse and is more entertaining than the regular; lions' jumping the fire rings and a man riding a unicycle on a rope. Cirque combines the norms of a tradition circus with highly talented acrobatic performances that are not just some random moves, but instead tells and convey the message in a way that is more interesting and eye catching than a regular play or a musical.
The idea of Cirque du Soleil came from the founder of the company Guy Laliberte, who dropped out of his college to pursue his career in the field of Performing Arts. In that respect, Laliberte headed to Europe and performed their both as a busker and a folk musician and also learnt the art of fire breathing before he headed back to his home country, Canada. After he came back, he took a turn from his career path he worked in the hydroelectric power plant, but that job pf his lasted only for a brief amount of time before it ended due to a labor strike.
After that incident Laliberte opted to put all of his energy in the career of performing arts hence he along with Daniel Gauthier and Gilles Ste-Croix organized a fair in Baie-Saint-Paul. Gauthier and Ste-Croix helped a lot in finding the artist that were required to form up an organized performing troupe, as those two were managing a hostel that was occupied by the young performing artists. After everything was set all that Laliberte, Gauthier and Ste-Croix required now was funding to organize their first organized event named Les Echassiers de Baie-Saint-Paul. It kicked off its tour in 1980 and ended up with the positive reviews by viewers and critics, although it failed to be a financial success.
After the losses suffered, Les Echassiers de Baie-Saint-Paul broke up, but Ste-Croix's and Laliberte's hopes were still high and they organized another touring festival named La Fete Foraine that was held for the first time in July 1982. The festival came out to be a better, although mild, financial success as compared to Les Echassiers and carried on for next few years.
1983 marked the 450th Anniversary of Quebec, as it had been 450 years since Jacques Cartier discovered Canada. That year, Govt. granted Laliberte with the funding of $1.5 million to organize a festival to celebrate the event. This was the time that gave birth to now's one of the most diverse and entertaining form of circus around the world, Cirque du Soleil.
Back then it merely started as temporary touring company only to celebrate Canada's 450th anniversary and was named Le Grand Tour du Cirque du Soleil. Although the event initially faced a number of difficulties but ended up being a success as it concluded.
After the success of Cirque du Soleil Laliberte opted for the expansion of the company and hence started another show named Nouvelle Experience that proved out to be one of the most successful shows by Cirque du Soleil, and it continued until 1993. The show introduced the idea of bring the audiences closer to the action as there were no curtains that separated the artists from the audiences anymore. Another show that was started by Cirque was a music event named Delirium that ran until April 19, 2008.
Currently the touring shows organized by the Cirque du Soleil have expanded up to 7 shows, which are performed across the globe. These shows include Alegria, Quidam, Dralion, Varekai, Corteo, KOOZA and OVO. While the big top resident shows include Mystere, 'O', La Nouba, Zumanity, KA, LOVE, ZAIA, ZED and Criss Angel Believe.
