Algeria, I'm told, is Spanish and Portuguese for "joy" or "jubilation". It is also the name of one of Cirque du Soleil's touring shows, and one that I desperately want to see at some point. So far, I have only seen Dralion, and thus began my love affair with Cirque du Soliel.
Cirque du Soleil is a breathtaking showcase of human capability physically, musically and visually. The amazing combination of music, costume, acrobatics, characters and movement fascinates and uplifts me. These marks on a page cannot possibly convey the complete and utter enchantment of going to see one of their productions.
This video below is the song 'Alegria'. I really like it, and hope you will too.
Labels: Cirque du Soliel, Dralion, Joy
