Zaia video promo from China TV – This is also one of the few videos I’ve seen that has interior shots of the theater seating area.
The Zaia Bunch
The Zaia Bunch – This is a photo of the artists, crew and support staff for Cirque Du Soleil’s production ZAIA at the Sands Venetian, Macau (SAR) China. I think this was taken in May 2008. I’m on the left hand side in the green shirt (thank you to Rachael for making the scary faces and hands behind me…hehe)
And just for the archives, here’s a full resolution photo you can click on if interested:

Montage of Heath Ledger as the Joker in Batman the Dark Knight. Also see below an interview with Heath Ledger on his experience of playing the part of the Joker. It really was a fantastic performance!
Hac Sa Beach – Coloane Island (SAR) China
If you visit Macau be sure to check out Hac Sa Beach on Coloane. It’s a favorite with locals and tourists. Not quite as nice Huntington Beach, CA but it sure is relaxing. Many of my friends live on Coloane Island and have great views with daily access to Hac Sa. I went there the other day when work was getting stressful and it really did the trick.

Scott Storch
Hey Scott,
My heart went out to you when I read this article. I guess it was a slow news day and they had to feed on someone. You’ll bounce back stronger than ever, I know it. Be strong, this too shall pass. (I used to live in Grove Isle when I went to University of Miami so we have a little connection there).
When the chips are down you find out who your real friends are.

ZAIA Theater and Set Fact Sheet
Information on the Zaia Theater for Cirque Du Soleil’s show at the Sands Venetian, Macau (SAR) China.
“For me, ZAIA is an inner journey through time and space. The set, in which arcs and perspective lines predominate, evokes the viewpoint of a human eye looking through a large observatory telescope. ”
Guillaume Lord, Set Designer

The Cirque Creation Period

We’re knee deep in the Creation Period for Cirque Du Soleil’s “ZAIA” show. Here’s a video for my fellow artists that may make you feel better. We’re earning our stripes together and sometimes the pain just shows we’re growing. 🙂
Artists from other shows told me the Creation Period for a Cirque show would be challenging. Yes it is!
