Royal Albert Hall, Londres (UK), Jan. 2007

In a place of darkness, a dream of light lives.
The old order is trying to keep the curtains drawn,
to keep out tomorrow. But a new day is dawning.
The future is rushing in. Wil you be there to meet it?
Let the light be your guide...

If you have no voice, SCREAM.
If you have no legs, RUN.
If you have no hope, INVENT.

Foi a partir deste enorme desafio que o Cirque du Soleil criou Alegría, o espectáculo mais fascinante que tive oportunidade de assistir.

Para mim foi um assombro, mágico, desconcertante e ao mesmo tempo uma celebração. Um momento vivido no sítio certo e na altura certa.

Queria partilhar este acontecimento convosco meus amigos e dedicá-lo especialmente a ti, minha querida Bruxinha.

"Alegria was a very personal show for me. I was going through some painful experiences at the time, and I wanted to express that pain in Alegría. There would be less colour this time. But alegría means that, even when you're in pain, life goes on. Alegría was an exorcism, and there was joy at the end of it."
