Backstage at Cirque's Wintuk

Yesterday, for the third year, I got a group of our City Tech students got a backstage tour at Cirque du Soleil's Wintuk.  Matt Stoody, Cirque's Technical Director for the show, graciously spent a lot of time with our students, expaining how the show and Cirque works.

I have a writeup with embedded video and more photos from last year's visit here.  While the show is aimed at kids, its very solidly produced and has some very good circus acts.
