Quidam (pronunced "key-dahm") is a show produced and performed by Cirque du Soleil.

The show Quidam focuses on a young girl, named Zoe. The whole show is from inside her imagination. The show gives us an inside look at a little girl's imagination.

Quidam includes a variety of acts. Handbalancing, the German Wheel, aerial hoops, Spanish Web, diabolos, aerial contortion in silk, aerial handstraps and a Banquine acrobatics act are all included within the show, as well as dance numbers.

The title refers to the headless character that is featured in the show (meaning "a certain one/thing" in Classical Latin). Quidam is the embodiment of both everyone and no one, at the same time.
