Roman Tomanov (at this stage 15 years old) performing at the straps in 2004 at the International Circus Festival in Budapest (Hungary) where he won the bronze medal.

Avril Lavigne at ZAIA

Avril Lavigne stopped by and saw our ZAIA show today. She’s doing a concert down the hall Friday night as part of her “Best Damn Tour” show. She stopped downstairs in our green room after the show to say hi and get photo ops with the Cirque Du Soleil ZAIA cast.

ZAIA will be on television in Hong Kong Saturday September 13, 2008. A programme named “太陽劇團特約: 探索 ZAIA 的夢想世界” (translated as Cirque du Soleil presents “Exploring the ZAIA journey”) will be on TVB Jade, a Cantonese TV channel with highest audience in Hong Kong.   The programme will feature interviews with our Writer & Director Gilles Maheu, Make-up Designer Nathalie Gagné and some of the artists including ZAIA (Kaleen).  It will also include show footage and some location shots here at the Venetian.  However the program will be in Cantonese, for those who do not understand the language, I do hope that you enjoy the programme visually.
