The “Anonymous Cirquester†strikes again and passes along some interesting bits of news related to our favorite Circus, Cirque du Soleil:
- Dubai 2010 starts its creation process in January 2008 for a premiere in late 2010 or early 2011.

- Cirque du Soleil is currently evaluating projects for resident shows in New York City (to accompany Wintuk) and once again in London.
