They specifically say the costumes were changed for Quidam, and if you look at the Quidam costume they give:



you can see what I mean about the colours being a lot brighter for Alegria than Quidam. (It's a while since I've watched Quidam, but my overriding memory is that it was all rather dark and gloomy, with the exception of the very very pale looking performers - it was rather like the scenes of the poor in productions of Oliver Twist / Les Miserables).

To clarify my other comment, Oleg and Tatianna are in the recording of Quidam that was made a few years back, but I'm pretty sure they're not in the currently touring show. In fact, Oleg has a new partner now - Tatianna got injured. Apparently he's gone through about nine partners due to injury!

[Before anyone asks: Yes, I have a lot of Cirque DVDs...]
