Cirque du Soleil NIGHTMARE fo children, families, US Courts and our economy.'Charlie'

'Charlie' received best Ringmaster,
Performance Director in the US
 1995.

One Mother and her children's heart wrenching battle to survive abandonment, disabilities, abuse, and cruelty by the father, Vicente Quiros Dominguez of The Quiros High Wire, (Kooza Show) and their sheltering employer, Cirque du Soleil. You may never want to pay for a ticket again.


Cynthia 'Charlie' today/
 **After over 2 years since a formal request was sent for my ex husbands financial information to help pay his 90,000.00 arrears Child Support...(not counting the 4 states that picked up all the medical which he was Court ordered to do), we finally heard back.
Cirque du Soleil said they don't know where he lives and Nevada sent me a form looking for contact information.
Although he is from Spain, he has a green card.which makes him have to obey US laws.

Cirque du Soleil has 20 shows currently and he is on Kooza. In the past 6 years, he has purchased 5 cars and 3 motorcycles. His driver's license is in Florida. He has not paid any taxes even though he is working in the United States!
Currently he is working in Dallas, Texas, then he'll go on to St. Petersburg for a month.
He has a Court order to always keep contact information updated with the Court but never has.
Vicente has also been using many alias names!! His formal name is Vicente Quiros Dominguez BUT he, (and others), have begun to use Quiros as a last name. Florida law says that your driver's license must have your correct last name yet he gets away with using his middle name for a last name. He also added an extra 'N' in his first name ViNcente, or a 'J' as a middle initial, or a "Jr.' even though he's the III, and many combinations of these.
Renee', Roberto, Cynthia and Vicente.

He married his South of the border wife in 1997 in Alachua, Fl. BUT he used Quiros as a last name and now so does she! Again, his last name is legally Dominguez so I'm told the marriage isn't legal.
A call to the Spanish Consulate confirmed that he never divorced me in Spain either.
His little daughters tell my kids it is "THEIR" dad and refuse to give a phone number.
Nevada wrote to Cirque du Soleil and was told they don't have an address for him. Cirque du Soleil IS one of his addresses! They have corporate offices in Montreal and Las Vegas. The owner, Guy Libertine has a net worth of 2.6 BILLION dollars. It's incredible he takes so much money from the US but refuses to assist a mom and kids with Court orders. They DO take a minimal amount BUT with the huge arrears, it will take over 12 years to pay and he's already 50. (51 in December) and it's rare for anyone to continue high wire past 55.

Vicente's driver's license says a Sarasota address that's been in the family 24 years. Another address used by him and his wife is a rental that's been used 17 years. His financial profile states he is earning 13,000.00 a MONTH. Yes, Thirteen thousand dollars a month BUT doesn't pay taxes?
I have run Traces, background checks and so on as has my best friends. He is everywhere and Cirque du Soleil contends that because their main office is in Montreal, he doesn't have to pay US taxes.
The newest tax laws state that we DO have reciprocity with Quebec so the health insurance and  a higher amount based on his 13,000.00 a month should have been honored.

I am told that there are many babies out there by these dead beats who work for a company that violates the laws and refuses information.
They put their performers up in 5 star hotels everywhere and cater food better than a Cruise Ship. Still, he eats out every night spending 100-400 per night.
My 3 children have been treated terribly following an 8 year complete abandonment.

Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey on the other hand garnished him and sent payments weekly without needing enforcement. They immediately gave insurance and everyone pays their taxes.
If families would just boycott these shows for a week, they would get the message and stop abusing Americans and our already distressed economy.

I will paste the original blog here as well for the readers to get a complete picture.
I just find it disgusting that a man worth 2.6 BILLION dollars lives in Las Vegas and enjoys our great country while taking our hard earned money THEN establishes policies that hurt children and families year after year shamelessly.

They are robbing countries around the globe and finally are being looked at a little closer.
A federal tax law states that if anyone can turn in companies or people that have defrauded over 2 million in taxes...form 3949A is how to report iut and form 211 is where anyone reporting can collect 15% of the total tax bill just for reporting them!
Can we all report this?

How can we believe any government that talks endlessly about tightening up and making taxes even for everyone BUT this company and it's performers and workers are laughing in our faces.

Enough is enough.
If there are attorney's out there willing to take a percentage, please write to me. Our son is disabled and the age of majority should not have stopped support states a Nevada Revised Statute that was also ignored.
My kids need so many things including college and grand kids who were never even invited to see the show when it played in the same town for three months.

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL HURTS AMERICAN FAMILIES, CHILDREN and TAXPAYERS SERIOUSLY!

Miss Charlie Hackett
New Orleans 1995

This is in no way meant to do harm to any US Circus or circus family, but then again, Cirque du Soleil is anything but a US Circus and the man in the story is a Spanish Citizen..who doesn't have to pay US taxes even though he works here!

As we here in the US continue to complain about our taxes supporting other countries, I am amazed that Montreal based MULTI BILLION dollar Cirque du Soleil, multi show company serves to rob the very victims it alleges to entertain.
(Or Cirque do so lame as many of us refer to it).
I know.
My ex husband, Vicente Quiros of the High wire act, (on KOOZA show, one of many touring and Las Vegas based Cirque money makers), he shares with his brothers and cousin has ravaged my life and his children's with the help of Cirque du Soleil. Shamelessly. BOLDLY.
I almost wonder how hard they laugh at us...instead of the clowns.

and Bailey Circus 1982.

On the other hand, all American Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey is to be commended for having done everything without involving any of our State Child Support Collection agencies.  (also paid by tax dollars).
After all, anyone is quick to point out villains but slow in mentioning the heroes.
That's why they won't return to Ringling...he'd have to provide Medical?????? Is that like 30.00 a month since he already has a family plan??)
After a true comedic performance in The Las Vegas courts where barely English speaking father of three thought his mere presentation of a Ringling program book would convince the courts to find him international immunity, it was Ringling who upheld the order of child support and medical benefits for the three children of Miss 'Cynthia 'Charlie' Hackett, (me).



In 1996, I dropped one of the 3 kids allowing Vicente to keep a greater portion of his Ringling salary which was around 4,000 a month, back then.
Vicente and his Mexican born wife, Abril married soon after and managed to escape any obligations to the three kids, financially, or worse, morally.
For early 8 years, Vicente ignored the children and managed his career on the high wire in countries where 'reciprocity' with the US is not observed. (Meaning, they ignore our courts.)
When the news of The Quiros return to the US leaked by numerous sources, I contacted Cirque to go after the 8 years in arrears. I was treated with hostility! I had to ask for the assistance of The State of Nevada where we not only signed our agreement but where Vicente maintains a 'permanent' address. (He doesn't own a mortgage to my best knowledge.

Yes, he has all his teeth and his claws.

The Canadian company gave a very hard time to Nevada to say the least. In fact, every attempt to get the medical insurance has been met with threats of alleging HARASSMENT against the State and US!
As for the arrears? Well, financial information is required. Following an expensive ordeal to prove the controlling order, (their first attempt at weaseling through loop holes), Cirque was served more than one year ago. Knowing the usual tactics of supplying only ONE of what might be 3 or 4 contracts per performer, (each 'production number' has it's own value), I was able to help word the request so as not to let any of what was 2 years ago amount of 12,000.00 PER MONTH plus all expenses paid slide by.
Especially since Vicente will probably retire long before the total is even close to paid...
Well, here I am with an amount ordered in 1996 being collected, no medical and nothing towards the arrears.
Harassment?

How about the type of care the kids, especially the son with his dad and Uncle's Tourette's Syndrome could have gotten if not for Medicaid discrimination?
Yes, it's genetic.
I must tell you fine people that even though Vicente has also been performing within the US, NO TAXES WERE EVER COLLECTED FOR THE US!!!
He now has 2 more girls. Beautiful girls just like the first 2 we had...and his son, Vicente Jr. or 'Chris'. The NRS, (Nevada laws), state that when a child has certain disabilities, the age of 18 won't stop the support obligation. Despite record after record which would more than fulfill this, the support is scheduled to stop and the arrears will kick in.
With fines and penalties, the actual amount is well over 90,000.00 and the medical bills in excess of that.

Sadder too is  I had already broken my neck and had to go on full disability before Vicente left Ringling. He KNEW we would barely be making it.
I used all my IRA, 401K and savings to keep things going and get the kids their needs!
So, tax payers, before you ever pay another cent to see Cirque du Soleil, please note that according to case workers in Nevada where therre are numerous cases against The Canadian Circus' performers, all are greeted to the same deceit and hostility. The fact that there are 'offices' in the US means NOTHING as the only office that matters in payroll and that's safe behind the Canadian boundary.
My apologies to the tax payers who have had to help support my kids through the years BUT perhaps if we stopped aiding and abetting this circus, and went ONLY to the MANY circuses and acts that do follow court orders, they might have to step up.

Then again, countries like Belgium would still be waiting to give dead beat dad refuge again.
If there are any attorneys who believe they might wish to help me to help my kids who have lived almost a poverty existence while Spanish pass ported dad and Mexican pass ported mom stay free in our 5 star hotls and evade laws set aside for DIPLOMATS...please write!
The saddest part of all is that while they steal millions out of the pockets of American tax paying companies pockets like Ringling, Disney, Clyde Beatty, SHRINE, Big Apple, Hanneford, Wallenda, Rodriguez, Vargas, Carden, Jordan, Coronas, (to name a few), etc...they allege to do it as 'family' and 'children's' entertainment.

The rejection from their dad and the Company that is closer to an off Broadway show with a circus theme rather than a circus itself has been anything BUT entertaining.
Recently he told my son he would speak to him ONLY if my son would never speak to me again...and you wonder why we have parenting classes in our Court system?)
If you're thinking they deserve it, they risk their lives on the high wire...well, so did I, WHILE PREGNANT and without the use of safety wires and nets where there is little more skill than that of a balance beam lying on a floor mat. Please see my youtube video under Charlie Hackett Circus.

It's an illusion folks, the QUIROS safety made high wire that is, the complete disregard for documents and medical insurance is HOWEVER just as real as the sick gut feeling you're having right now over being deceived once again into farming our work out to foreigners who get breaks we never even dreamed of.
Unless of course you are NOT a dead beat dad, (my apologies to all the great and good dads who would never have done such a thing),...but that's not what we're dealing with.
How about an entire  DEAD BEAT COMPANY?


In case you are wondering how this show manages to steal work here that US Citizen's CAN do.....? Well, they allege that each individual artists' work is unique and therefore The Quiros High Wire is different than others....heehee, another loophole, we hire outside for things we cannot get here.
That's weird, I know GREAT high wire artists right here in the US who are not working. In fact, there are entire shows without work because of Cirque du Soleil shows both touring and in Vegas!
I have even heard that The Big Apple, another GREAT US Company has been hit hard by the Canadian Circus.
The QUIROS HIGH WIRE? Huh, they're not even the 'fame' name in the Wire business, right Ricky?

My little one is a remarkable 6 year old and has Autism. The savings, retirement, home, belongings, etc...I used to support my kids when we were abandoned SHOULD have been what we live on now BUT I need everyone to share and care.

I mean no harm to the great people who work for Soleil and take care of their families.
I just wish they'd help get the word to Guy Libertine or someone who is at the top who would care.
