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

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!

Destination Macau video report on Cirque Du Soleil’s ZAIA
Received this email today asking me what it’s like to work for Cirque Du Soleil.
Hi Mr. Askland,
I am curious to know how it is to work at Cirque? What are the hours you work as a musician? How long do you have to prepare for an audition after they choose you to be part of the show?
Please let me know.
Best regards
Daniel
Artists for Cirque Du Soleil’s ZAIA show got their official Cirque bathrobes yesterday. The photos on this post are not of the actual bathrobe – these are pictures a friend sent me making fun of how much I like my bathrobe. And I do love my Cirque bathrobe! It’s heavy and black with a hood and has a gigantic CDS logo in full color on the back. With the hood we all look like Obi Won Kenobi or Sylvester Stallone in Rocky.

Press conference and previews of ZAIA (Cirque Du Soleil in Macau, China at the Sands Venetian) presented May 29, 2008 at the new Cirque theater at the Venetian resort and casino.
We’re all on stage at the end, but hard to make any of us out.
