Selections from Cirque du Soleil
"Distorted" and "Urban" are
from the La Nouba show at Disney World. La Nouba is from the French phrase "faire la nouba", meaning "to
party" or "to live it up". Quidam is another Cirque du Soleil show. "Quidam" is the title song meaning:
"a nameless passer-by, a solitary figure lingering on a street corner, a person rushing past. One who cries out, sings
and dreams within us all".

The Quidam may have stepped out of a surrealist painting or been conjured up out of
Zoé's imagination. He is anonymous; he is everyone, and, at the same time, he is no one.
Zoe: The protagonist of Quidam. The show gives an insight into a little girl's imagination.
