Cirque du Soleil adapts its classic show ” Quidam” for big arenas

Posted on March 18th, 2011 in Musical | No Comments »

Cirque du Soleil’s “Quidam” first swung into the big top back in 1996. And since its debut, the blockbuster has been seen by almost 10 million people worldwide. Cirque du Soleil has reinvented ” Quidam” once performed under a big top, to work in arena settings like HP Pavilion and the Cow Palace. In the new story line, with costumes designed by Dominique Lemieux, the heroine at the center of “Quidam” is no longer envisioned as a little girl, but as a young woman.
