Inspired by the best of what was happening internationally, in 1986 Cirque creates a new theatricality and adopted a vision whereby rules exist only to be broken. Guy Caron brings in Franco Dragone to teach Cirque artists commedia dell'arte. The mandate is clear: to produce a European-style professional show anchored in acrobatics, with original music and without animals. From the Chinese they learned about perfecting the blend of presentation, music and choreography--about grace and beauty, gestures and smiles. Cirque drew upon an impressionistic sensibility, took everything that had existed in the past, and pulled it into today.
Cirque du Soleil makes its name on the international stage too, as acts are awarded top honors at competitions and festivals around the world. Denis Lacombe, from the Ecole nationale de cirque, wins a bronze medal for his "orchestra conductor" number at the Festival du Cirque de Demain in Paris.
