So I managed (a few days ago) to get a look at some pages from Cirque,
specifically the parts dealing with the setup and cargo load.
I don't know if we have any other stagehands here, but... There's not
enough cargo. You can't fit everything into 18 dtons, or into the
total of 87 dTons of cargo available. Consider that the real life
Cirque travels in about 45 trucks, which are 45' High-Cubes - for a
total of 287.1 tons of very efficiently packed road cases (it could be
less... If you wanted a very disorganized cargo hold. "Where's my X?"
"Oh, I stuck in the back to free cubic for Y..." "YOU SON OF A...!").
To be fair, The T5 Cirque does save several tons by having BT1... But
not much.
Also, 1224-1700 seats is a tiny show - real Cirque seats about 6k/performance.
Jeff, you can expect an article from me over this. (I know, I know,
best reaction ever - giving you more content).
