From the world-renowned Cirque du Soleil comes an extraordinary new family series designed especially for television. A magical solar wind transforms everyday life into a playful world blending fantasy with acrobatic performance. Ordinary characters suddenly change into jugglers, hand-balancers, acrobats, contortionists and myriad other fantastic incarnations. Each episode is thematically driven exploring Childhood, Escape, Adventure and Romance to name but a few. In addition to performers from Cirque du Soleil’s live shows, there is a vast selection of other world-class acts discovered by Cirque’s team of talent scouts. This includes never-seen-before performances by budding artists from the top international circus and performing arts schools. Sumptuous lighting, music and striking costumes created specifically for the series complement this opulent production. Drawing inspiration from cinema, situation comedy and burlesque theatre Cirque du Soleil has invented a new genre. It’s called Solstrom.
