Queensview has been with PCL for a while now, I think the "tunnel" stations came after.

Cirque du Soleil’s first new creation since the pandemic brings the Montreal-based circus company back to Gatineau for a five-week run this summer, from Aug. 16 to Sept. 22.

Entitled ECHO, the original production follows the adventures of a curious young woman named Future and her dog as they explore a mysterious cube, discovering along the way that their choices have the potential to shape the world. It’s written and directed by Mukhtar Omar Sharif Mukhtar.

Blending poetry, stagecraft, acrobatics, music and technology, the action in ECHO unfolds in and around a giant, two-storey, multi-media cube that moves across the stage. It will be constructed inside the blue-and-gold big top to be set up at Gatineau’s Zibi plaza, near the shores of the Ottawa River.

The show premiered in Montreal last summer.

Tickets for ECHO are available in a presale for Club Cirque members (membership is free; to join, go to www.cirqueclub.com).

Regular tickets are on sale Feb. 26 at https://www.cirquedusoleil.com/echo.
