When cirque came to Dallas a few years ago, it was a little person with one (big)* balloon! Most fun I've had at a show!

Edit: My memory failed me, but here's a photo from one of the shows: Corteo

It is more efficient to put your lifting gas in one big balloon than several smaller ones, since there's less balloon material to lift. If I understand, it's always Valentyna up there, and she's been doing this balloon act for 20 years.

Ok, my memory failed me, it was multiple balloons with a larger one on top. Here's a review that features the actress i saw, not sure if they had to modify the balloon count for the Dallas show: https://munroreview.com/2018/09/22/review-cirque-du-soleils-corteo-is-nice-but-underwhelming/
