Jesko, Cirque du Soleil, Saltimbanco, Clown part 1/5

These are the "clown" acts from Saltimbanco, The number was originally developed by René Bazinet. I performed the role from 2002 until 2005... and again on occasion in 2006. The role is currently being performed by Amo Gulinello. (costume designed by Dominique Lemieux)
The numbers have often been accused of being too long. Yet, when they were well performed, became a 'highlight' of the show. The audience memeber is not a "plant" and much of it is improvised.

i have a question to everyone... i have been to alot of the cirque du solei shows, quidam being my first one back in 99 ( i fell in love with this one and i still say its the best one)... i am going to see saltimbanco on friday and i am kind of nervous that it wont be as good... i heard that it wasnt as great as all the others... is it worth going??? please let me know IF IT IS GOOD OR NOT... thanks!

What kind of a question is this?

Is it good?.... Defined by what?

Each person will take out of it what he/she needs.

Saltimbanco was originally created in 1992 and has seen several incarnations, it is a different show than say Quidam. The cast at the moment is strong, the arena environment is adapted from the chapiteau, allowing it to go to markets otherwise not available with the infrastructure of the tent... If anything, compared to the other shows, it may be stylistically dated...Go see it!

I saw Saltimbanco last night, and every single act was amazing. The artists were so skilled it was ridiculous. But Eddy the clown with his simple little sketches would have to be my favourite. His skills were amazing, and the acts hilarious, he was absolutely a simple joy to watch. I would recommend anyone go and see Saltimbanco, it's a very happy show that anyone will enjoy, no matter what their age or what personality.
