As Cirque Du Soleil’s latest touring extravaganza Amaluna get’s ready to premiere in the DC region tonight, Hollywood on the Potomac wanted to give you a further look at all the preparation that goes into creating Cirque’s signature brand of excellence.

We went back stage with Larry Edwards, Head of Wardrobe for Amaluna, who let us in on some of the tricks of the trade for dressing dozens of performers, show-after-show and just what each artist goes through to help perfect their specific character’s look.
