Swing Fever: Fabrice Lemire Talks Quartz/Crystal

www.cirquefascination.com: Cirque du Soleil is “dancing in new territory,” according to its artistic director and full-time Palm Springs resident Fabrice Lemire. “Quartz,” the upcoming show that Lemire is about to launch, will be performed entirely on ice.

As (touring) artistic director, Lemire has overseen the development of Cirque’s last three shows, “Quidam,” “Varekai” and “Toruk,” based on James Cameron’s blockbuster “Avatar.” He recently began the three- to four-month development process of “Quartz.”
