- Cirque du Soleil ("Circus of the Sun" or "Sun Circus") is a Canadian entertainment company and is the largest theatrical producer in the world. Privately owned Cirque du Soleil, started in 1984 by a troupe of stilt-walkers from nearby Baie-Saint-Paul in Quebec, reinvented the circus. Believing people worldwide were ready for something different to make them happy, they abandoned traditional acts such as lion tamers and bearded ladies. Instead, Cirque du Soleil offered dramatic, exquisitely choreographed shows marked by mystery and intrigue.
