Cirque du Soleil returns with ‘Quidam’

Cirque du Soleil to present QUIDAMCirque du Soleil is returning to Australia with Quidam, one of the company’s most loved shows, this summer. The Quidam arena tour will launch in Canberra on December 11 and will then travel on to Wollongong, Hobart and Newcastle with limited seasons in each city.

 

Since premiering under the Big Top in Montreal in 1996, Quidam has captivated millions of people across five continents. Now Quidam has embarked on a new journey, with the same spellbinding production being performed in arenas around the world.

 

The international cast features 46 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors who present a showcase of spectacular aerial feats, astonishing human agility and heart-warming emotion.

 

The show’s description reads: “Young Zoé is bored. Her parents ignore her. Hidden in the crowd of today’s modern society, her life has lost all meaning. Seeking to fill the void, Zoé slides into an imaginary world, the world of Quidam, where she meets a host of curious characters who encourage her to finally free her soul.”
