One day, Canadian street entertainer Guy Laliberté had an idea. Would it be possible, he wondered, to get all the street entertainers he knew to perform together in one big show ? Laliberté started a company that later became known as Cirque du Soleil, or “Circus of the Sun.” The show soon became very popular. Now it travels to different countries, and is perhaps the most famous circus in the world. Millions of people have seen a Cirque du Soleil show, and people often return to see the shows many times.
