For those of you who are familiar with les 7 doigts de la main and are also fans of Cirque du Soleil, do I have a special treat for you!
The following is a video report about Isabelle Chassé back when she was 13 years old and had only just begun her circus career! Isabelle is, of course, one of the founding members of 7 doigts, and the contortion act she performed in Nouvelle Experience (and the subject of the video below) is what launched her circus star.
The video is in French, but even if you don't speak the language, it does offer some really interesting footage of the earlier days of Cirque du Soleil (this was filmed in 1991 and the company was founded in 1984), as well as the early days of l'École nationle de cirque de Montréal.
Enjoy!
