Quidam

<h2 id="set-and-technical-information">Set and technical information</h2>
The minimalistic stage was designed by Michel Crête to represent a monolithic structure such as an airport or train station where people are always coming and going. The major set element includes the five, all-aluminum, 120-foot (36.57-meter) arches above the stage, known as the <a href="/facts/T%25C3%25A9l%25C3%25A9ph%25C3%25A9rique/TUrkyYGc">téléphérique</a>. These allow performers to be transported onto and off the stage from above. Each rail of the téléphérique has two trolleys: one to raise and lower the performer or equipment, and the second to transport it onto or off the stage.
The stage floor is made of aluminum decks with a perforated, rubber-type mat. The perforations, of which there are over 200,000, allow light to pass through from below the stage, creating visual effects.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a>
The original Quidam stage was redesigned and incorporated into the <a href="/facts/Bazzar_(Cirque_du_Soleil)/0EqYUwSS">Bazzar (Cirque du Soleil)</a> grand chapiteau tour. The show premiered in November 2018.

<h2 id="cast">Cast</h2>
The cast of Quidam has a cast of 45 acrobats, musicians, singers, and characters, some of which are detailed below.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a>

<ul><li>Zoé: She is the principal character and singer in Quidam. Although average in nature, she longs for excitement.</li>
<li>Father: Completely, though unwittingly, self-absorbed, this character is lost behind his newspaper until he eventually open his eyes to find himself among his family and loved ones. His white shoes are the only indication of a hidden personality.</li>
<li>Mother: Conveys an air of absence and alienation whilst inside her lie fear, frustration, and desire. Through the show, she rediscovers the intense feeling of being alive through pain and courage, play and love.</li>
<li>Quidam: The show's titular character, who is anonymous, everyone, and no one (the name means "passer by"). He may have stepped out of a surrealist painting or been conjured up out of Zoé's imagination. He is known for his bowler hat and umbrella despite being headless.</li>
<li>John/Mark: He is an eerie yet charming guide on our mysterious journey through the world of Quidam. Also is represented as a father figure to Zoé hence him stepping into her father's shoes. The character changed of 'John' was played initially by <a href="/facts/John_Gilkey/cFH1UPIX">John Gilkey</a> and then by Mark Ward who performed the role from 1999 onwards. Sometime after this transition, the character's name changed to 'Mark'.</li>
<li>Target: A living human <a href="/facts/Bullseye_(target)/trLujm6W">bullseye</a> fired at by everyone but is always smiling.</li>
<li>Chiennes Blanches: The silent chorus, the nameless and the faceless, the dehumanized, mechanical crowd, simultaneously leading and following. They also accompany the principal characters as they make their entrances and exits.</li>
<li>Les Égarés: Lost individuals who gather together in the streets and abandoned buildings of Quidam. Many of them perform in the banquine act.
<ul><li>Boum-Boum: A pale skinned, bald character who wears boxing gloves.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a> Enjoys screaming at the audience and walking away proudly, but will run away if an audience member screams back. He is aggressive and physically fit, yet extremely lifeless. It is as though his body lives on only because his soul refuses to leave it.</li>
<li>Aviator: This character runs around on stage with skeletal wings, but doesn’t look quite ready to take off. Perhaps he doesn’t know he has wings. Perhaps he knows, but can’t fly. Perhaps, like Icarus, he has tried and failed or perhaps he simply wants to escape this world and its problems.</li>
<li>Homme Rayé: Translating into English as the 'Striped man' due to his blue and red costume with white stripes. He is one of Les Égarés who has a scarred face.</li>
<li>Pierrot: Another of Les Égarés who is most noticeable when running across the stage in a long white gown and she has bright red hair.</li>
<li>Kangaroo: A character representing the youth in society, he wears a blue, sleeveless hood and is one of Les Égarés.</li>
<li>Blue Lady: A pale skin lady, always spinning on herself.</li>
<li>La Garçonne: One of Les Égarés, she is dressed in red and love skipping all the time.</li>
<li>Skipping Girl: One of Les Égarés, she is dressed in blue and love skipping all the time.</li>
<li>Ballerina: A strange character, he is dress with a tutu.</li>
<li>The Explorer</li>
<li>Rescapé</li>
<li>Romantic</li>
<li>Jujube</li>
<li>Oublié</li>
<li>La Mouche: An upbeat character that makes up Les Égarés, she is dressed entirely in light blue and green.</li>
<li>Funny Bunny/Peau D'ane: A character who chases and gets chased by other characters. A genius in ecology, lovey-dovey, and astrology. She is one of Les Égarés and is noticeable as a red rabbit on stage.</li></ul></li>
<li>Les Macloma: Three <a href="/facts/Tramp/gNJFIyrb">Tramp</a>-like characters who serve as parodies of the traditional <a href="/facts/Circus_clown/WeAhuVAR">Whiteface</a>, <a href="/facts/Circus_clown/WeAhuVAR">Auguste</a> and <a href="/facts/Clown/dwMBRAIs">Character</a> clown archetypes. (1996-1997, 1999-2004)</li>
<li>Les Frères Velasquez: Les Macloma's understudies during First European & Second North American Tour. (1999-2003)</li>
<li>Les Don Quijoles: Les Macloma's understudies during the First Japanese Tour. (2003-2004)</li>
<li>Kotini Jr. & Alosha: A duo of clowns that included Kotini Jr., (Portrayed by Konstantin Andreitchenko-Wübbe), and Alosha, (Portrayed by Alexey Mironov). (1997-1998)</li>
<li>Toto & Voki: A duo of clowns who performed acts created by <a href="/facts/David_Shiner_(clown)/hPTHEtbC">David Shiner</a>. (2004-2016)</li></ul>

<h3>Awards</h3>
Quidam's diabolo act won a Gold Medal at the 1995 Festival du Cirque de Demain.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a> The show's banquine act won the Golden Clown at the 1999 International Monte Carlo Circus Festival.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a>

<h2 id="costumes">Costumes</h2>
Quidam's costume designer, Dominique Lemieux, drew inspiration from <a href="/facts/Surrealism/VUJpoo6c">Surrealist</a> art, particularly the works of <a href="/facts/Ren%25C3%25A9_Magritte/mRwSQJ3E">René Magritte</a> and <a href="/facts/Paul_Delvaux/ryyJoPL5">Paul Delvaux</a>. The costumes convey the alienation of the characters and represent an urban landscape through the use of painted textures and fabrics. The dominant color is grey but is supplemented by deep, rich, warm colors and embellished with metals. Quidam was the first Cirque du Soleil show to use everyday clothing for the outfits, although those in the acrobatic acts are modified. The fabric chosen for Quidam is primarily stretch linen, but also includes leather, <a href="/facts/Jute/33l9lhI9">jute</a>, linen crepe, wool, velvet and 42 types of cotton.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a>
Quidam has approximately 249 costumes, 500 costume accessories, and 200-300 shoes: Each artist has anywhere from 2 to 7 costumes, of which there are at least 2 spares. The costumes, although washed every day, can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a>

<h2 id="music">Music</h2>
Quidam’s music was composed by <a href="/facts/Beno%25C3%25AEt_Jutras/MjSRrWq3">Benoît Jutras</a> and has been released in three album editions featuring additional songs, alternative new cover designs, and higher quality sounds. The first CD was produced by Carl Marsh. It was co-arranged by Marsh and Jutras and released on January 14, 1997. (<a href="/facts/Amazon_Standard_Identification_Number/twP2MtLk">ASIN</a> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000003G5M">B000003G5M</a>) The album features the voices of Audrey Brisson-Jutras and Mathieu Lavoie, with the exception of two bonus tracks sung by Brisson-Jutras and Richard Price on the extended CD released in 2001 (recorded live in <a href="/facts/Amsterdam/Xdd393bz">Amsterdam</a>, 1999).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17">17</a>

<h2 id="tour">Tour</h2>
Quidam started as a Grand Chapiteau touring show before being fully converted to an arena touring show in 2010.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a> For a short time in 2009, Quidam toured the UK and IE in arena format before switching back to the Grand Chapiteau for its South America tour. After this, in 2010, Quidam was converted into the arena format where it began a North American, European and Asia-Pacific tour. However, during its run in Seoul in 2015, Quidam was temporarily reconverted to play under the Grand Chapiteau for three months before continuing its farewell tour in the arena format for its run in Australia and New Zealand. The show's 20-year tour visited 241 cities in 42 countries before it ended on February 26, 2016 in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Cirque du Soleil started using a customized tour bus as a method of helping to advertise Quidam during its tour in northeastern North America during the fall of 2011. During the show's stops in cities, the tour bus makes appearances at local merchants, allowing people to meet part of the crew.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a>
