In one of his first stops on Road Trip 2008, CNET News.com's Daniel Terdiman went behind the scenes of Cirque du Soleil's La Nouba show at the Downtown Disney resort in Orlando, Fla.

This shot shows the inside of the La Nouba theater, where several trapeze artists begin their twice-weekly training. Members of the show's crew dropped the net from above early in the day Tuesday. The performers were training around 11 a.m. and will perform in the evening's two shows, which run at 6 and 9 p.m.

La Nouba opened in 1998 and was the Cirque's third resident show (after O and Mystere in Las Vegas).
