Saltimbanco is the oldest major touring show of Cirque du Soleil that remains active in some form. Saltimbanco ran from 1992 to 2006 in its original form, performed under a large circus tent called the Grand Chapiteau; its last performance in that form was in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on December 10, 2006. A new adaptation of the show started touring North America on July 31, 2007, with its first stop in London, Ontario, Canada. The current version is staged in arenas, with shorter stops in each city it visits.

The show is described by Cirque du Soleil as a celebration of life. Its creators say they developed it as an antidote to the violence and despair prevalent in the 20th century.

English has lost the word 'saltimbank' from current usage; but it is still familiar in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian as 'saltimbanco', and in French as 'saltimbanque', meaning 'street acrobat' or 'entertainer'.[1] According to the company's site, the word "saltimbanco" comes from the Italian "saltare in banco", which means "to jump on a bench." The etymology of the word reflects its acrobatic associations. A 'salto' is a somersault in Italian; 'banco' in this connection is a trestle holding a board, set up as a temporary stage for open-air performers. 'Saltimbanchi' were thus those who performed somersaults on a temporary platform—wandering acrobats, performing as buskers in the open air, the platform giving their audience a better view.[2]

History

As Cirque du Soleil's longest running performances,[3] Saltimbanco has carried some major milestones with it. In 2011 Saltimbanco was the first show by Cirque to be presented in Turkey,[4] and in 2012 the first show in Slovakia and in Amman, Jordan.[5] As of 2012, Saltimbanco is touring North America for its final retirement tour and the last performance is scheduled to take place in Montreal on December 30, 2012.

Set and technical information

Saltimbanco's set plays on opposites and contradictions located within a cityscape. The rosace is actually made of metal rings which allow light to filter through like leaves on a tree. The lighting is very cinematic in effect due to the usage of different colored gels. The facts listed below are from the arena format of Saltimbanco, although some of these are also applicable to the grand chapiteau tour as well.[3]

  • The stage itself is 110 feet (34 m) in length and 65 feet (20 m) in width.
  • The Chinese poles are 24 feet (7.3 m) in height.
  • The equipment for the show weighs a total of 180 tonnes (180 long tons; 200 short tons) and is transported and configured by 26 specialty technicians and 12 truck drivers.
  • Approximately 140 people are hired locally in each city to set up and load out the show for the arena.

Cast

The 51-member performance troupe includes multiple musicians, singers, acrobats, and characters.[3][6]

  • Urban Worms: The faceless multitude, the masses, the bureaucrats. They are the status quo: they watch and follow, but never act.
  • Multicolored Worms: The Multicoloured Worms are the simplest of all beings, the origin of all life. Following their primal urges, they are concerned only with survival.
  • Cavaliers: The Cavaliers are gentle protectors. They light our path through the world of Saltimbanco and point the way to the future.
  • Baroques: The Baroques sleep under bridges and emerge to celebrate life. Defiant, rebellious, explosive, they are enlightened beings whose free spirits run wild.
  • Death: An ominous reminder of our own mortality, he challenges us to celebrate life, to experience the present as though we were taking our last breath.
  • Ringmaster: The Ringmaster likes to be the center of attention, and often steals the show. With his winning smile and natural charm, he usually gets away with it.
  • Baron: What secrets lie behind the Baron's sardonic grin? Before you can find out, he has you locked in his hypnotic gaze. He beckons you with his gravelly voice. He is your timeless, ageless guide into the world of Saltimbanco.
  • Dreamer: The moment he appears, the Sleeper falls asleep. When he does, amazing tableaus take shape. Has he conjured Saltimbanco from the depths of his imagination, or is he dreaming within the show?
  • Child: Within the embrace of his parents, the child is safe. But the child must discover his own identity, and explore the world beyond his parents' influence. He appears to be like Eddie, playful and innocent.
  • Eddie: Eddie is a jester, a clown. He is the child within us all, who finds adventure in his own imagination. Whatever he needs, he invents.
  • La Belle: She reflects all human emotion, the soul of Saltimbanco. Her language is universal-serenity and excitement, hope and joy, disappointment and melancholy.

Acts

The acts in Saltimbanco are a mix of more traditional circus acts contrasted with modern acts.[3][7][8]

  • Adagio trio: Three acrobats perform in this adagio, which draws inspiration from acrosport.
  • Chinese poles: Up to 26 performers perform in this act using four 25-foot-tall (7.6 m) poles in the middle of the stage. They climb up, drop down, jump between, hang from, and even spin on these poles before making their exit.
  • Balancing on canes
  • Juggling: A juggler uses multiple balls in this manipulation sport.
  • Boleadoras: Two performers twirl boleadoras in this unique act created by Cirque du Soleil. The bolas are a percussion instrument, which is hit against the ground to produce a loud popping sound.
  • Russian swing: Multiple artists jump off the swing, performing twists, spins, and flips, before landing on human pyramids, a mat, and other props.
  • Solo trapeze
  • Hand-to-hand
  • Bungee: Four acrobats flip, sway, and bounce in time with each other in synchronization using bungees.

Rotational acts

Retired acts

  • Tight rope (double wire): The acrobat ascends a wire as two more tightropes, one three feet higher than the other, are revealed. She performs many tricks; flips, spins, splits. She even backflips from one rope to the other, and then jumps back. This act was removed from the arena transition due to rigging issues.
  • Contortion
  • Diabolo
  • Vertical rope: This was one of the first Saltimbanco acts, a one-man Spanish web act.
  • Manipulation
  • Artistic bicycle: A bicycle artist wheels around the stage, all the while playing the guitar, hand balancing, swinging and dancing on wheels.
  • Duo trapeze

Costumes

The costumes in Saltimbanco are bright and vivid in color to accentuate the dynamism of the urban city. The colors used in the costumes are all primary colors: cyan, yellow, magenta, and green.[9]

  • Baron: The Baron clad in black, red, and white wears a cape, length-arm gloves, and tights that play to his character.
  • Multi-Colored Worms: Wear jumpsuits that cover everything but their faces.
  • Urban Worms: The masks of the Urban worms are made of a polyester resin base which is both hypoallergenic and permeable to air.

Music

The original album artwork for Saltimbanco, 1992.

The Saltimbanco score was written and composed by René Dupéré, and was released as a studio album on October 9, 1992. The music has a range of musical influences from the classical to the modern. Saltimbanco marked the first time Cirque du Soleil's music used an invented language for the lyrics, a tradition that has persisted in most of the company's subsequent musical scores.

The original soundtrack features the vocal work of Canadian vocalist Francine Poitras. In 2005, Cirque du Soleil re-recorded and released the soundtrack to update its music. Some songs were completely re-recorded, while others had new instrumentation added and included Poitras's original vocal track. Additional and new vocals were provided by Laurence Janot, a French singer who was touring with the show at the time. Every track was slightly edited in some form from the original CD.

Several other limited editions of the album have been released. In 2001 Cirque du Soleil Musique released a limited edition of the original 1992 soundtrack featuring two additional tracks, "Arlequin" and "Adagio" (performed by Laur Fugere). Another limited edition of the CD, Saltimbanco Live in Amsterdam, was created and distributed exclusively to staff members of Saltimbanco. The employee special edition features a live, in-house recording of an entire performance and is considered a collector's item.

Below is the list of tracks featured in the 2005 re-release of the album and alongside are the acts during which they are played.

Tour

Saltimbanco toured around the world several times during its original 14-year tour under the Grand Chapiteau. It played its final show in the Royal Albert Hall in London on 1 February 1997. Saltimbanco was revived the following year on 14 October 1998, and went on to tour the Asia-Pacific region. The show played for another nine years, becoming the first Cirque du Soleil show to tour South America, with visits to Santiago, Chile (March 2006); Buenos Aires, Argentina (May 2006); and São Paulo (August 2006) and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (October 2006). That tour's final performance took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on 10 December 2006.

Following its closure in December 2006, Saltimbanco was configured into an arena show format, and re-launched in July 2007 to commence an extensive North American tour, visiting cities and areas that Cirque du Soleil had previously been unable to visit. The tour started in London, Ontario and subsequently toured Canada and the United States. Saltimbanco’s three-year tour of North America ended in Columbus, Ohio. In 2009 the show embarked on its third tour of Europe. Between 2011 and 2012, it visited over 50 cities in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Eastern Europe, and North America.

Saltimbanco is currently touring North America for its last tour ever. The final performance of the show is scheduled to take place in Montreal on 30 December 2012.[10]
