AbstractMontreal-based Cirque du Soleil opened in Hong Kong's Victoria Park on 1 November 1996. The group's Alegria, unlike the acrobats-and-animals show that make the rounds regularly, is a fantasy of colour, skill, choreography, music and humour. The show lives fully up to the Spanish meaning of Alegria: elation, jubilation, exhilaration.
