KÃEUR Extrême is the documentary describing the creation of KÃEUR by Cirque du Soleil, an epic theatrical production playing at MGM Grand in Las Vegas.The program explores the journey of a remarkable and technically-demanding $30 million production from rehearsals through to its first public performance. Viewers are introduced to the show's main artisans including its writer and director, Robert Lepage. KÃEUR Extrême also focuses on the show's unique scenography that does not include a stage in the classic sense but rather a vast empty void. This is not only captivating but also psychologically disturbing. For artists looking down into a 90-foot abyss every day induces a fear that needs to be confronted and conquered. KÃEUR Extrême provides viewers a rare look at a singular creative process in action.
