Zumanity (Cirque du Soleil)
Zumanity is a resident cabaret- style show by Cirque du Soleil at the New York- New York Hotel& Casino on the Las Vegas Strip.
The production was unveiled on September 20, 2003( previews started on August 14, 2003).
It is the first" adult- themed" Cirque du Soleil show, billed as" the sensual side of Cirque du Soleil" or" another side of Cirque du Soleil".
Created by René Richard Cyr and Dominic Champagne," Zumanity" is a departure from the standard Cirque format.
Intended to be for mature adult audiences only, this show is centered on erotic song, dance, acrobatics and comedy.
The inspiration to create" Zumanity" came from multiple sources.
Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté had been offered the chance to create two new shows in Las Vegas, and wanted something completely new and original rather than multiple similar shows that would cannibalize off of each other's sales and audiences.
Another reason was that the New York- New York Hotel and Casino wanted to make their entertainment appear more" trendy".
The hotel liked the concept of a more adult Cirque du Soleil performance.
Laliberté admits that the biggest reason to produce this show was the chance to create something with riskier subject matter.
He was interested in the idea of creating a show that explored human sexuality, something that was at complete odds with the other, more family- oriented Cirque du Soleil shows.
" Our previous shows have all been family- oriented and politically correct, which is great," Laliberté said," but we're human beings, we wo n't hide it.
We're a bunch of happy campers.
We like to live new experiences.
" Zumanity" deals with some of those experiences."
Gilles Ste-Croix
Gilles Ste-Croix is a Canadian entrepreneur and the vice president and co-creator of" Cirque du Soleil".

Delirium (Cirque du Soleil)
Delirium was a touring multimedia stage show by Cirque du Soleil featuring live music, video projections, and performances by acrobats and other circus performers.
The production featured remixes of existing Cirque du Soleil music.
The show premiered on January 26, 2006 and had its final performance in London, England on April 20, 2008.
" Delirium" was the first of Cirque du Soleil's productions designed to be presented in arenas outside Japan( first was" Fascination" in 1992, which was only presented in Japan); all the company's previous stage productions outside Japan had been toured with their own large, custom- built tent( referred to as the' big top' or' grand chapiteau') or were permanent shows performed in specially designed theatres.
" Delirium", as Cirque du Soleil's first significant experiment with arena venues, eventually helped pave the way for the company's subsequent show- by- show conversion of its older big top productions( e.g." SaltimbancoAlegríaQuidamDralion", and" Varekai") to a more cost-effective arena format.
