Our small town has a circus school, and our Miss Tree teaches there. Her girls are star pupils and when there is a student performance, we are first in line to get tickets.
I've enjoyed every one that I've been to, but this latest was even better than before. It was such a professional production, and the costumes were gorgeous. I invited my pal, Beth to join me there, and told her that this wasn't like being drug to someone's kid's recital, this was a real SHOW. And it was.
My boy was the DJ and had some swinging, vintage style mixed music to keep the energy pumping.
There was contortion…
Lyra…
LED hoops…
Trapeze…
Silks…
And so much talent!
See what I mean? There were two nights of performances, and I could have used a few more nights of it, all were so good. Some of the contortion makes me turn my head, the drops from the silks make me gasp with fear, and there is never a dull moment. These performers were sharp, entertaining, and exciting.
And not just the ones that I happen to love…
The whole troupe was fun to watch. The theater that holds the event will be hosting it three times a year, if all works out as planned. Let me know if you want ticket info.
And maybe in the future, we will have more family members in the show?
I'll leave you with some highlights of the performances.
oh how fun. Our ten yr old grand daughter is in a circus school here in Washington. She does trapeze and silks and just ordered a hoop for a Christmas gift. She also walks her dog on her unicycle.
We just heard tonight our daughter took a job in Taipei, Taiwan so I am not sure she will have that pursuit there.
Circus skill training is such a unique and interesting thing for kids to do. I hope your little one can continue, catiean.
I love when the artists use the silks – I am fascinated by the daring routines! Looks like a wonderful and very entertaining show.
