Cirque du Soleil: Cirque Class

Michel Laprise distinguished himself in theatre for nearly a decade prior to running off and ?joining the circus?. In 2012, he collaborated with Madonna, providing artistic direction for her performance at the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show and later went on to direct her MDNA tour.

With 22 years of onstage experience with renowned companies such as Ex Machina and Opera de Montreal, the multidisciplinary artist Lydia Bouchard has danced on stages around the world. She then diversified her experience towards television where she has become a strong voice for Quebec's dance community.

Elena Lev, one of Cirque du Soleil's iconic performers, started her career as a circus performer at the age of 12 when she first joined the show Alegria. She is wildly known for her signature acts which combine the art of hula hoops with gymnastics and contortion.
