Cirque Éloize iD transports the audience into the vibrant streets at the heart of a big city. The stage comes alive with the boundless energy of acrobats, break dancers, contortionists and a fearless stunt biker who perform against a kaleidoscope of eye-popping video projections drawn from science-fiction films, comic books and graffiti.
Weaving together urban dance with twelve different circus arts, Cirque Éloize iD showcases the unique talents of an international troupe of artists, showcasing skills such as juggling, contortion, in-line skating, stilts, Cyr wheel, hand balancing, straps, bike trial, Chinese pole and aerial silks, building to a spectacular finale on the dynamic trampowall.
The Montreal Gazette said “iD is a thrilling piece of work, full of attitude, energy and invention. The ultimate charm of the show is the way it hangs together, with energy, anarchy and attitude, from beginning to end, thanks to director Jeannot Painchaud. This is his masterpiece.” The Toronto Star exclaimed, “You’re not going to find a more energetic, mind-blowing, roof-raising piece of entertainment. Spectacular!” The Miami Herald pronounced it "Wordless Splendor!"
