Merveilleux !!!!
by Ed Vincent
Cirque du Soleil’s “DRALION” is
an artistic wizardry of sight, sound,
and touch. All of your senses will be touched,
caressed, and
pampered to the delights of the extraordinaire.
Entertainers of
the highest caliber have been assembled from the world
to show
Chicago the majesty of pure big top drama. This
luxurious tent that
has been assembled on the lot of the United Center
is fully air
-conditioned and equipped with a sound system and
staging to
make any stage manager jealous. This is a new
tour to come to
Chicago, the first in three years. The vision
that began Cirque du Soleil
has now expanded to many parts of the world, well
beyond Quebec
(since its beginning in 1984 the show is now seen
on four continents).
This show should stay in town for two months, not just
one. Many
of the tickets are sold out until the last week of
the performance. Please
call as soon as possible to see this show. If
I were a politician I would
prevent them from moving the tent until September.
Cirque du Soleil is a gift of beauty, art, perfomance,
and splendor to
the world. Come and be amazed.

In keeping with its sense
of social responsibility, Cirque du Soleil allocates part
(nearly 1%) of its potential
box-office revenues to philanthropic activities that
assist young people in
vulnerable socio-economic circumstances. In particular,
Cirque top managers have
set up the "Cirque du Monde" program, which uses
circus arts as an alternative
way of working with youth in difficulty.
