Update Log (Recent) ]
06/16/99: L'Information de Cirque is a new interdomain within Richasi's Domain. L'Information de Cirque is a fan site/archive for Cirque du Soleil, the world renouned French Canadian circus. They have inspired something in me and for that I produce the page. It is now fully online, the link is on the front page. 07/17/99: Site has continued to grow over the past month with various pictures, links, and other items of interest. 08/09/99: Minor updates to a few pages, though the dates on the pages will not have changed. I added a few pictures to the Mystère site as well as updated some info on various Music pages. Also the Le Cirque Réinventé page was updated slighty with a new graphic and clickable picture to expand that slide. More to come when needed. Also, the Quidam page was updated to reflect the lyrics to one of the songs. { Return to Top }
02/01/00: Development has speeded up, then slowed down over the course of these last few months. Additions will be forthcoming as new material is brought to light--but basically no new big selections should be added in the near future. 07/19/00: Site still down. I await the Reedycreek server to come back up. I had hoped it would return by July 1st but it has not. I placed a note from the link to Cirque notifying anyone who wanted to see it. Unfortunately, I do not know when it may return. 08/01/00: Ciruqe site is unfortunately still down. Like I said, I have placed a new page out there that says the site is down, this will help with the broken link and inform you that it is still down - when it comes back up I will take that page down - I am looking forward to is as much as you are, trust me :) 10/08/00: For its re-opening sometime REAL soon, I have made some modifications to the site. While they aren't too noticable at first glance, one will be able to see them as they glance around. First off, on the front page, a JAVA applet has been added - I call it the Cirque du Soleil NewsLink and there will be displayed bits of information about Cirque - current news and things - that I want my visitors to knows. Secondly, the musique sections of each production have been modified. There are two versions. For O and Le Cirque Reinvente, you are presented with a complete screen wide cover. Select your track to hear clips. For the majority, a frames section has been set up for ease of movement and better organization of things. It also allows for expansion in that area if I so see fit to do so in the future (and there will be some expansion in Musique sections soon). Other additions include updates to various productions as their status changes and new pictures for Alegria, Mystere, La Nouba and O. You shall see a redesigned "Preview Central" where you are provided with an Audio and Video selection. Under Audio, you'll see the "Collection" CD spread awaiting your decision for clips. The video section will remain the same. Again, this allows the site to support the Collection CD and allow for expansion. Clips have been added to the Dralion Section and Journey of Man section as well as the Alegria Movie section. There are many more additions left to be discovered and many more on the way! { Return to Top }

Though, there are some changes coming. Stay tuned! { Return to Top }
04/22/04: I know it's been a long time coming, but I'm finally able
to reveal the new site. How does it look? It's been almost
a year without any real huge updates and for that I
apologize. Doing the Fascination! Newsletter now for the
past three years has taken its toll, and I've had less
and less time for site updates. However, I wanted to
rectify that for its 5th anniversary!
Among it being brighter and (I hope) easier to navigate,
you'll find a plethora of changes here, too many even to
list on the update log. But generally I can say there has
been a lot of streamlining of navigation and information
display. Information that was displayed on three pages in
the past has been consolidated on one page.
There's still a few updates left to perform but I thought
I'd better get the majority of the new pieces online just
as soon as I was comfortable with the navigation. So, with
that, please enjoy the 5th Anniversary version of Richasi's
Le Grand Chapiteau!

of our past issues are avaialble through it. Select
Newsletter from the top navigation bar or the Newsletter
logo from the main page to access it. Also added a link
to the Navigation bar entitled "Forum", which will take
you to CirqueTribune, the new online fan-run forum!
08/28/04: Uploaded an updated CirqueCon 2005 pageset. There's little
updates on each page. What's of note is the change in ticket
information!
10/30/04: Added lyrics... "Nostalgie" to «O» (Thanks Andrés Mata!) and
"Emballa" to Varekai (Thanks to Bruno Kim!). I also wish to
thank "gufia" who sent fixes for Spanish lyrics to

Thank you!

Soleil Fire Within" to the Télémagik section.

This new site features an Issue Photo Gallery, an issue updated Itinerary, TV Listings and, yes, a Back Issue section. This new site takes the place of the Yahoo! Groups site for back issues and may, in the future, be the new distribution for the newsletter. Minor maintenance on the "Site Info" page. 03/11/05: Added "Table of Contents" (which lists the Table of Contents for each issue), "Meet the Staff" (which showcases the writing staff), and "DidYaKnow?"

There are some surprises in store there - some albums I thought were not included in the new CDSM catalogue! In "Other Music" find Journey of Man, LOVE and VIVA ELVIS CD releases (they're Cirque shows but not Cirque music releases!), as well as previously released material no longer on the catalog, such as: Fanfafonie 45 and Cirque du Soleil Volume 1 (from 1988).

Many of these links (such as "Background" and "Didyaknow" from the CREATIONS sections) will be filling in soon. What I'm doing is implimenting a minor new style to each of the show's index pages, adding in links to Features (Interviews) we've done, Audio/Visual (CDs DVDs and Books about that show) and also placing the Creative Team list on the front page. Next will come a new "Music/Fotos" Box on each of the acts - some of them have this already - which link back to the CD the song is on, if it is at all. This also removes the "Position" tag as it is unnecessary. Then I'll begin filling in missing information and/or updating shows that need it, such as Zaia, Viva Elvis, and more.

So there are six steps, or categories, as part of this update, they are: - Update 1: New Menu Options/Links - Update 2: New Music/Pics Box/Tag (in acts) - Update 3: DidyaKnow?

So far, Saltimbanco, Alegria, Quidam, Dralion, Varekai, Corteo and Delirium have been re-worked, but more tweaks are coming.
