Context
  In association with Sensix agency, Cirque Fantastic Concept (CFC) imagined and produced the closing ceremory show for SAS' annual convention.
 
Client's objectives
 

• To offer to more than 3,000 guests a spectacular circus show using and highlighting new technologies.

• To form a concept for the show that would integrate the giant video screen used during the convention.

• To express the beauty of the Canadian landscape through the theme of the four seasons.
 
Description of the event and CFC solutions
 

Our proposition to SAS was a 13-minute show featuring thirteen artists and three video screens.

A three-level stage was installed, allowing for many numbers to be presented simultaneously, including a synchronised aerial curtains number, a German wheel number and a breathtaking Russian bar number during which an acrobat was throwned twenty feet in the air before landing back on her feet on a pole that was barely two inches thick.

Six dancers performed a set of beautiful choreographies expressing the different energies and atmospheres that are associated with the four seasons.

The giant 100' X 20' video screen installed at the back of the stage, as well as the two smaller screens on each side of it showed images that served as special effects: fallen leaves for fall, flowers for summer, etc.

In Cirque du Soleil's musical universe, a very beautiful diva sung melodies stemming from her imagination.

Bungee cords were installed above the crowd.

Thanks to this series of short overlapping performances, to the music and to the video effects, the audience was able to travel throughout the four seasons while enjoying a spectacular show.

This event required many hours of work, but we reached our objective. We succeeded in associating the beauty of the artists to the possibilities offered by technology. Above all, we had a lot of pleasure putting this event together and the client was absolutely delighted with the result.
