Cirque
Du Solei’s touring production of quidam, uses acrobatics, clowns,
contortionists and much more to tell the story of Young Zoé who is
bored; her parents, distant and apathetic, ignore her. Her life has lost
all meaning. Seeking to fill the void of her existence, she slides into
an imaginary world - the world of Quidam - where she meets characters
who encourage her to free her soul.
Quidam: a nameless passer-by,
a solitary figure lingering on a street corner, a person rushing past
and swallowed by the crowd. It could be anyone, anybody. Someone coming
or going at the heart of our anonymous society. A member of the crowd,
one of the silent majority. The one who cries out, sings and dreams
within us all. This is the "quidam" whom this show allows to speak. This
is the place that beckons - a place for dreaming and genuine relations
where all quidams, by proclaiming their individuality, can finally
emerge from anonymity.
What the media say about the show
"It was
what we expect from the circus […] clowns, beautiful athletes, fabulous
costumes, and remarkable feats of artistry, poise, sensuality and
balance. "
ReviewVancouver.org
"The sheer virtuosity of these performers is enough to leave your head spinning. "
Mercury News
"...Quidam
is […] a classic in the Cirque repertoire. It appeals to young and old
alike, and it has mature and also youthful themes that most people can
relate to."
