Cerceaux Trio Quidam

1st solo - Oksana Pylypchuk
2nd solo - Kristina
3rd solo - Erin

Dear Friends,
I think you should know that in a major North American Company discrimination is quite normal.
I was fired from Cirque du Soleil just because I am Richard Jecsmen's girlfriend! Of course I could not get this in writing but I have some evidence from friends also employees of Cirque du Soleil from other shows and not the one we were worked at (Quidam) telling us this information. Is the message from Cirque du Soleil to the artists " If you are friends with Oksana or Richard you can get fired ..."
I also have emails I am happy to provide copies of, where CDS employees manipulating my visa application process and have Jana Kotrbata -Conseillere en Immigration making a wrong date for my appointment and Jana Kotrbata want it to change it to another date which was possible for me to attend and then Lauree Bangs advised Jana Kotrbata to keep the wrong date - so I can NOT obtain my working permit in time so Cirque du Soleil could fire me for not being in the US in time for my training! Discrimination in a major Canadian Company is real committed by Canadian citizens!
-And it's not over yet!!!
I did have a visa from earlier time to enter the USA legally!!! I did arrive one day before my 1st appointment according to my contract with Cirque du Soleil!
The hotel where all the Quidam employes were staying had no reservation for me at my arrival!!! This is another proof that they did not even waited for me to arrive or to be late and more !!! They did not expected me to be there period!!! They already made their corrupt decision to not have me back and make me looks like I am the one in fault! Spreading rumors by Olga Pikhienko that I did not respected my contract so it might effect my future engagements outside of Cirque du Soleil!!!!

I got myself a room at the same hotel as all Quidam employees then next morning when I was going to the Arena my entry was denied to the training place and was told to wait for Richard Dagenais for a meeting!
When Richard Dagenais arrived -came with Fabric Lemire- he said: " you wanted to leave anyway... " with a very cold attitude. I tried to explain to him that Lauree Bang's deception but Richard Dagenais told me to talk to Brigitte Bouthillier the Adviser in Montreal about this! He don't listen he didn't care what i had experienced!!! He only said at the end of our meeting that you have to go home and talk to Brigitte Bouthillier pointing to the door, made me feel like he was throwing me out of the USA. He is from Quebec he has no rights to do that i know however he made me feel like he had the authority to do so!
Then Richard Dagenais stood up and was going to leave, then Fabrice Lemire tried to talk to me about my return flights my airplane tickets to get back home, but Richard Dagenais grabbed Fabrice Lamire and told him do not talk to me and do not listen what am I talking about basically do not care how I will get home! Do not help a 22 year old in a strange country after working for Quidam for 4 years!
I am 22 years old 1st time in the USA I worked 4 years on Cirque du Soleil was all alone in Nashville,Tennessee, I didn't have any support to get back to Europe from Cirque du Soleil.

According to my contract and according to the last letter from Brigitte Bouthillier i suppose to be reimbursed for my return flight to my home which i still did not received!

Cirque du Soleil proved to be discriminating and disrespectful to foreigners! Cirque du Soleil want me to feel that i've done something wrong and i can not help thinking that i did...i just could not figure out what...

Laurree Bangs, Ella Bangs mother? I can't believe she would do that. I known Ella (singer of Quidam, 2007-2011) for 3 years, and her mom and couldn't believe she would do that.

Now is working for Cirque Du Soleil that "amazing"?

And do you get backstage passes to other Cirque Du Soleil shows?

Have you heard anything recently from Cirque?

[Celx]

@oksanapylypchuk Damn, I will never see cirque du soleil the same way.

[Celx]

You were amazing at quidam, I'm so sorry for what happened! I guess that if they treated you that way they didn't even deserve your talent in their show.

[circusm139]

Very nice! Can you please put a video up of your silks act? I would really like to see that ;D
