In 1999, Canadian singers Céline Dion attended Cirque du Soleil's Las Vegas show O and became so enthusiastic that she asked the concerned director Franco Dragone to make such a show for her. It became the largest live entertainment deal ever involving an artist: a daily show in Las Vegas from 2003 to 2007. The Colosseum theater was built especially for this project, an architectural and technical
… masterpiece. With a certain humidity level - to keep Dion's voice in optimal condition - and a $ 10 million LED screen, the largest indoor screen in the world. Financially it was a huge gamble, but luckily the show A New Day turned out to be a resounding success. This double DVD is a beautiful document, with many extras in addition to the dazzling show full of dance, art and flying work. For example, we follow Dion 'in real time' behind the scenes for an evening. Dion appears to have absolutely no star allure, but rather a warm personality with a lot of positive energy and humor.
