frobzwiththingz: duo fabric shot (silk_firefly_vt)

A very nice show, more old-school-circus in terms of the types of acts in it. Story line minimal at best, but i could never really follow the story line in a cirque show anyways, _Corteo_ excepted.

Contortionists fabulous.
Clowning entertaining, if a bit laden with bathroom humor. Loved the pickpocket.
The Chair-stacking guy really makes me want to work on (== get one) my handstands.
The dual tightwire will make me set one up in my yard and start working on it.
The unicycle pas-de-deux will have me working more on my U-cycling, perhaps attempting some partnering things with [livejournal.com profile] klingonlandlady.
There was a well choreographed WHEEL! OF! DEATH! act which did not dissuade me in any way of wanting try it, and if really insane, perhaps build one. Need to seek out learning opportunities first. It looks like quite a bit of fun!

The juggler, on the other hand, made me want to simply give away all of my juggling equipment. After seeing this, there's just no point in trying.

Sounds like Rob had you pegged re: the WoD.
The obvious response is: Sure, why not?
Inner voice: "BECAUSE IT'S THE FRIGGING WHEEL OF DEATH!!!!!!!"
Goes to show you how powerful a name can be, eh?

It was my fifth Cirque show, and my favorite, especially since a good portion of the acts were original like the unicycle tango.
It was the only time in which I actually liked the juggling.
The chair stacking nerved me since I could see the minute misalignments (talk about a 0.1% margin of error).
