The Cirque du Soleil is an iconic entertainment company that has captivated audiences worldwide with its mesmerizing performances. The company recently announced its newest show, "Echo," which promises to be a beautiful and inspiring production. I was thrilled to find out that Es Devlin was on the original design time. Knowing bits about how Cirque as a company struggled during the pandemic, this announcement is more exciting than ever. As the world begins to emerge from the pandemic, this new show offers hope and optimism for the future. The Cirque du Soleil has always been known for its innovative and awe-inspiring performances, and "Echo" promises to be no exception. The design seems very promising and intriguing yet simplistic. As stated in the article, Cirque will be keeping their famous high-level acrobatics, so old fans won’t be disappointed. Despite the challenges of the past year, Cirque du Soleil has persevered and continues to inspire audiences with its creativity and vision. With "Echo," the company looks towards a beautiful future, one filled with hope, inspiration, and limitless potential.
