Cirque du Soleil attempts to break Guinness World Record

Five years after setting the first Guinness World Record for the most people simultaneously walking on stilts, Cirque du Soleil is inviting fans from all over the world to join them as they reclaim the title in honor of its 25th anniversary June 16. The cast and crew of La Nouba, along with Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, invite the people of Orlando to witness the stilt walk from 4-4:30 p.m. outside the La Nouba theatre at Downtown Disney. A special event at the opening of the 6 p.m. performance that evening is also planned. Cirque du Soleil will be holding stilt walking events in Las Vegas, NV; New York, NY; Montréal (Canada); Fortaleza (Brazil); Lisbon (Portugal); Macau (China); Nagoya (Japan); and Tokyo (Japan).
