  • Only for die-hard fans

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    I didn't know this was a documentary when I chose it. There are hardly any acts and only the members telling their history which can be quite uninteresting unless you're a die-hard fan, which I'd recommend to know more about the troupe. Otherwise, stay away.

    The title explains the subject of this documentary dvd which is about how cirque du soleil came about. I found quality of dvd a bit disappointing - only for the fans I think. Though of interest to know how Cirque du Soleil came about

  • History of Cirque...

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    What a useful documentary-style film! This gives you the background of the Cirque and the founders, together with an insight of how the performers unite to perfect their performances. The whole physche of Cirque is much clearer now and for anyone thinking of auditioning...this is essential viewing!

    This is a really interesting documentary type story of how it all began. Cirque Du Soleil is fantastic but I would only recommend this DVD for the fans.

    The first ever Cirque du Soleil show I saw was one which was on at Christmas 2004 on the TV to celebrate 20 years of their work. Since then, thanks to Screen Select, I have seen several of their shows. So it was very interesting to see this 10 year review and to see how the people behind the scenes view their work. Now looking forward to borrowing the other DVDs. If ever a show came near me, I'd move heaven and earth to get a ticket - sadly I missed out on their Edinburgh visit last year as I'd never heard of them then.

  • Delightful Insight to a talented bunch of people

    A show by Cirque Du Soleil was recommended to me a few years ago by a friend, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to see them. This dvd provides an insight into the historical foundation of the group. It puts their delightful performances into perspective.
