Sony Music & Pop Art Music are teaming up with Cirque du Soleil and Lionel Messi to produce a live performance that praises the world of football, the spirit and values of sport.
Lionel Messi embodies the passion for sport and surpassing oneself. He is therefore the perfect actor to wear this new jersey. It is far from his Catalan throne that the prodigy will inspire this future masterpiece of living arts, which will see the light of day in 2019. "It seems crazy and incredible that Cirque du Soleil is producing a show about my life, my passion, my sport! – My family loves Cirque du Soleil. I have no doubt that the show will impress everyone as always," he said.
Jonathan Tétrault, President and Program Director of Cirque du Soleil, also commented on this collaboration: "We are delighted to work alongside such a living legend. The opportunity to mix sport and performing arts is huge, we want to inspire the world! ».
Cirque du Soleil is no stranger to entertainment. After magnificent achievements around Michael Jackson and The Beatles, among others, we will soon find Lionel Messi!
