''O'' was inspired by the "infinity and elegance of water's pure form," which pays tribute to the beauty of the theatre. A group of 150 stage technicians assist in the production of the show, the cast of which is 85 performers: international acrobats, synchronized swimmers, and divers. Some of them are former Olympic athletes.<ref name="MgmPr">{{cite web| url=http://static01.cirquedusoleil.com/en/~/media/press/PDF/o/General_Release.pdf| title=Press Releases - Cirque du Soleil - O, 4/10/2014| publisher=Cirque du Soleil| access-date=2014-04-10| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151222212938/https://static01.cirquedusoleil.com/en/~/media/press/PDF/o/General_Release.pdf| archive-date=2015-12-22| url-status=dead}}</ref>
