Inside the Cirque

Read a behind the scenes Q&A with director, Bruce Thorson

Wherever the Cirque raises its Big Top - a grassy field on the outskirts of Brussels,a football field in Bogota,or a parking lot in Moscow– the Cirque’s ‘Spectacle of the Imagination’ delivers breathtaking acrobatics,unforgettable costumes and music.But an incredible real life adventure-drama begins long before the show opens. This one hour documentary puts our audience in the shoes and boots (and even the trapeze slippers) of the men and women who pick up, move, unpack and build the Cirque de Soleil – from Command Central in Montreal, Quebec to all its venues around the world.

Visit the Cirque du Soleil website for information on joining the circus.
