One Night For One Drop: Cirque du Soleil Show To Raise Money For Clean Water

In honour of World Water Day on March 22, One Drop, the non-profit organization established by Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Laliberté, will present One Night for One Drop, a special one-night performance featuring Cirque du Soleil artists. One Night for One Drop is a global philanthropy event that raises awareness and funds to ensure that water is accessible to all, today and forever.

This original full-scale production is set to take place at the "O" Theatre at Bellagio in Las Vegas, and will showcase more than 230 Cirque du Soleil artists and guest performers.

To share the experience internationally, the event will be shot with 12 cameras and a 90-minute special will be created. The broadcast will be available for online viewing from March 25 to 31, with a donation of $5 or more to One Drop.

One Night for One Drop will celebrate the Earth and highlight water as the essence of life. The seven current Cirque du Soleil shows in Las Vegas will go dark, so the 1,700 employees can collaboratively participate in this once-in-a-lifetime extravaganza.

Special guest artists will include "America's Got Talent" singer Jackie Evancho, Victoria's Secret model Oluchi Orlandi, a dance piece choreographed by Sonya Tayeh from "So You Think You Can Dance" and an original composition by award-winning composer Danny Elfman.
