Who will we meet this week?
Just sit tight and join us in this new episode of Ask Cirque.
Hi everybody, my name is Leon Kupferschmid
and I'm an artistic talent scout at Cirque du Soleil.
So Victoria Jackson from Instagram asks,
"What's the audition process like?"
So I'm going read this because it's a very long answer
and it's very complicated actually.
So every discipline is different.
We try to make sure that the audition is adapted
to evaluate every aspect that the artist can give us,
can show us, can demonstrate.
Some auditions are only a few hours long, some are 2 days long,
dance ones are 2 days long, singers can be about 45 minutes long,
but it's just you in front of the evaluator.
The important thing for us is that you feel at ease,
that you feel comfortable to show us exactly what you're capable of doing,
what your potential is, what your energy, your talent, your magic.
We want to see openness, we want you to try new things,
we want to really really test your comfort zones
as well as zones that are not that easily seen from the first 5 minutes.
I train in a group, in a group act
so we train about 3 times a week for 1 or 2 hours.
Besides that I can take care of myself and do my own training and
I train roughly about 1 or 2 hours a day but that's just for me,
that's what I want to do.
But for what I need to do, about 3 times a week for 1 or 2 hours every day.
Yes, of course. It is part of our language.
It is a way to communicate with other musicians
and to express what a composer means with the music.
Follow your dreams, work hard, train hard,
try broaden your artistic horizons,
take dance classes, acting, singing, play musical instrument
to try to get as much diversity as possible,
this will help you on your journey. Best of luck.
I start gymnastics since I was 6 years old
so I did like 25 years gymnastics
then I stopped
then I did just like 2-3 years aerial straps and balancing
and then I came to Cirque.
And now for 4 years I am already part of Totem.
Hi, how are you doing?
My name's Marquinho da Luz, I'm a percussionist from Bahia in Brazil
and I work here at Cirque du Soleil.
Now, I want to quickly tell you how I got here.
Actually, I got here because I have some videos on YouTube,
through which a Cirque du Soleil talent scout found me
and invited me to attend an audition.
I did the audition, passed
and I'm so grateful to be here, living the dream of my life.
So, speaking of dreams, I'd like to encourage you to continue following your dream,
which is wonderful, this dream of becoming a drummer here at Cirque du Soleil.
It's a fantastic job and I think you, everyone, really,
can make their dreams come true, if they have faith and determination.
I'd just like to give you one piece of advice:
find a master who can guide you on the right path for you to reach your goals, ok?
I hope you keep following your dream and that we'll see each other soon.
All the best, see you later!
Hi, my name is Frédérique and I'm from the PR department.
Mário Lúcio from Facebook asks:
"In all the presentations, are the songs really a live performance
with singers and musicians with all the instruments?
Some presentations are too perfect to be a live show
without technological help for the singer."
Yes, we have live musicians and live singers
and what's fun about it is that they need to constantly adapt
with what is going on on stage
because if an artist misses a trick and need to do it again,
the music will need to go longer.
So yes, live musicians.
But in the show Sep7modia, the Beatles Love and Michael Jackson One,
we have the recording of Soda Stereo,
the Beatles and Michael Jackson.
There's a question on social media
about what some of our acrobats like to eat,
which is kind of a difficult question for us to answer.
Everybody is different, we have so many different nationalities and backgrounds.
They tend to go to what's tasty, right, and that's our job.
And our job is to provide them with the best tasting food we can provide them,
which is always different.
We are always providing different meals every single day for lunch and dinner.
That's really our goal is to just keep our whole family happy.
So there is no direct answer, no simple answer to that question
except that we want everybody to feel like they're at home
and I feel like we do a fantastic job doing that on a daily basis.
[Amaluna artist] Hello! My name is Tuguldursaikhan.
I am an acrobatic artist.
I want to share the feelings that I get when I perform.
When viewers applaud during my performance it gives me immense strength and energy.
It makes me feel like I am touching the sky.
I would just like to say that I feel so good whenever I perform.
Thank you so much!
Alejandro Vistue Adiego from YouTube asks,
"What show has been the most seen until now?"
Created in 1993, Mystère is the oldest show
still being presented by Cirque du Soleil
making it the show with the greatest amount of representation so far.
However, created in 1998, O has reached more than 15 million viewers this year
making it the show seen by the greatest amount of people so far.
Hi, my name is Haley Viloria
and I'm a aerialist on Cirque du Soleil's production of Kooza.
"How do you communicate with each other?
Do you have language academy or something similar for all your artists?"
My answer to that is the primary language on most shows is English,
but we also have interpreters and translators
depending on the troops that are present on tour.
And what's great about Cirque du Soleil
is that because we're such an international company,
we each get a taste of different languages and we can learn as we go along.
Yes, we need to eat as much as we can
because we don't have much time to eat sometimes.
Especially before the show.
Actually yeah if you're serious then of course lots of vitamins,
lots of fruits and work a lot.
I don't really have a special diet to keep my body in shape,
just train hard and work a lot, that's it.
Yeah I don't have either the diet.
Regular day, regular life.
You just have to, you just have to work out
and maybe because we are performing so often,
we have like 10 shows a week and we have a lot of trainings,
the warm-ups, it's helping us to be in shape.
Chocolate, lots of chocolate.
He's lying.
