Witness the transformative powers of art firsthand as a collection of daring actors pushs their talents to the absolute limit in this reality-based drama shot over the course of two years in Las Vegas and covering the provocative, cabaret-style production of Zumanity: Another Side of Cirque du Soliel. These artists are willing to go to audacious lengths to prove their dedication to their craft, and as Cuban stripper Alex, elegant British dancer Laetitia, and spunky New York drag queen Joey prepare to redefine the limits of their identities, an erotic world where genders are constantly shifting and white-wedding brides participate in staged orgies leaves the very soul of the actor vulnerable to the white-hot glare of the spotlight. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
Illusion mocks reality as a dreaming clown sees his own funeral and a joyous procession of jesters form a festive parade in a stage spectacular so imaginative it could only come from the minds of Cirque du Soliel. As the angels linger lovingly overhead and the carnival atmosphere explodes with vivid color and playful revelry, the seldom seen space between heaven and earth opens up to offer a touching look at the juxtaposition between the tragic and the sublime, the enormous and the microscopic, and the flawed and the perfected. Despite their outward playfulness, even clowns are fragile on the inside, and as the Cirque du Soliel performers offer a lyrical, eye-popping spectacle of wonder that highlights the deep-rooted humanity within each and every one of us. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
The internationally known performance troupe Cirque du Soleil celebrates its 20th birthday in high style on this home-video release. Cirque du Soleil: Midnight Sun preserves a special event staged as part of the 2004 Montreal Jazz Festival, in which over 250 of Cirque du Soleil's players took to the streets with a spectacular fusion of music, dance, and acrobatics as a rapt audience of over 200,000 people looked on. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
The newest presentation of the fabled French-Canadian Cirque du Soleil was unveiled June 14, 2003, in this Bravo network cable special. Priding themselves on never exploiting animals to entertain the public, the members of the Cirque troupe are all astonishingly talented and dauntlessly fearless athletes, gymnasts, and magicians. Among the special's highlights is a heart-stopping display of trapeze prowess 50 feet above the ground (without a net, of course). Varekai originally aired as the capper for Bravo's all-day marathon of the theatrical documentary Cirque du Soleil: Fire Within. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
