Zed | |
| ZED (Theatre) | comment |
The second Cirque du Soleil resident show to open in Asia, following ZAIA, in Tokyo Disneyland in October 2008.It opens with two clowns, Oulai and Nalai, who have a book emblazoned on its cover with the letter Z. Upon opening it, Nalai literally jumps into the book and pulls Oulai in with him. The pair are transported to the story of Zed, a boy clad all in white, who is witness to the separation of two worlds: that of the sky, tended to by the goddess Nouit, and that of the earth, ruled by Abraka. The two worlds long to come together as one, shown with the various acrobatics acts which involve one side struggling to meet the other, and Zed himself just could be the key to making it happen.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })ZED primarily draws its symbolism from the Tarot, with Zed himself as the Fool, Abraka as the Magician, Nouit as the Star, and a Shaman guiding Zed through his story as the Hierophant. It was the company's first collaboration with director François Girard (followed later by Zarkana). The show, itself, was seen as a welcome return to form after some mild disappointments among the troupe's fanbase.Unfortunately, the show's 2011 season was interrupted by the earthquake and tsunami that affected Japan, and with ticket sales for tourism across the board at an all-time low, it was forced to close at the very end of the year. It was filmed for home media during those final performances. | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
| ZED (Theatre) / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
Dark Is Not Evil: Compared to the sky people's iridescent color schemes, the people of earth wear... well, much more earthen tones, as well as ones which bring fire to mind. The Shaman and his Djinn accomplice are also clad in very dark colors, but they're anything but evil. Kernoun and his minions play it straight. | |

Casanova Wannabe | |
| ZED (Theatre) / int_a806691d | comment |
Casanova Wannabe: Zed finds himself smitten with a sky nymph (the tissue routine), but is too dumbstruck to approach her. When two more nymphs (the straps routine) approach him later, he is more successful. This begins the process of uniting the worlds. | |

Audience Participation: But of course. In the prologue, Oulai asks for the audience's help in finding Nalai, as well as for assistance in getting back onto the stage. Those individuals who gave the greatest help often got a small shower of glitter as their reward. | |
