7 Fingers a Cirque du Soleil Offshoot You Simply Must See!

The impressive and beloved troupe known as Cirque du Soleil has brought thrills and entertainment to fans for years, all around the world, and recently a small group broke off from their larger mother company, and are excitedly beginning a new collective with a new artistic vision, calling themselves 7 Fingers.

Founded in 2002 by 7 members of Cirque du Soleil who were frustrated with the creative direction in which the Cirque du Soleil Company was heading, 7 Fingers brings you the same thrills and death-defying feats that you have come to love thanks to Cirque du Soleil. Taking street perfroming and circus-homage to a whole new level, the 7 Fingers is currently in a short-term run in New York, thier decadent tent set up quite close to the Brooklyn Bridge, and fans are already flocking to see the group that is making such an artistic difference in the field of the truly performing arts.

Playing much smaller venues than their Cirque du Soleil counterpart, who nightly play to crowds of 2,500 fans, the 7 Fingers are currently playing in their New York location in a venue that holds 350 patrons although their staging of another 7 Fingers show, Traces, will be able to play to 700 people. A breath of relief to the artists who were feeling repressed within Cirque du Soleil’s company, and an exciting chance to get more of the magic that these acrobats are able to provide to fans, 7 Fingers promises to be a truly great troupe as it continues to create shows that are fulfilling to themselves as performers as well as to the audeinces they aim to please.
