Have you ever wanted to run away to the circus?  Well now’s your chance as Cirque du Soleil’s newest Arena show, Quidam, will be performing in Vancouver from March 9th to13th, 2011 at Rogers Arena for just eight magical performances.

Quidam had its world premiere in Montreal under the Big Top in April 1996. Since then the production has toured on five continents and been experienced by millions of people. In December 2010, Quidam will embark on a new journey, performing this captivating production in arenas throughout North America.

Vancouver audiences have always enjoyed performances from Cirque du Soleil under the Big Top but this is your first chance to experience the majesty of an Arena show. The international cast features 52 world-class acrobats, musicians, singers and characters and the show itself promises to be even more awe inspiring and miraculous than ever before!

Quidam (pronounced “key-dam”) is a nameless passer-by, a solitary figure lingering on a street corner, a person rushing past. It could be anyone or anybody; someone coming, going, living in our anonymous society; a member of the crowd, one of the silent majorities; the one who cries out, sings and dreams within us all. It is the everyman in us all that Cirque du Soleil is celebrating with Quidam.
