- a slack wire walker who was awesome
- cube aerialists, 4 contortionists from Mongolia who did a routine in spinning cubes above the stage (Chris says Mongolian contortionists are always good)
- popper Robert Muraine (from "So You Think You Can Dance")
- a vaudevillian director who took 4 audience members and 'directed' a scene without saying a word
- foot manipulator brothers (also called icarian games)
- a percussion juggler who played a drum set by juggling balls
- the contortionists along with the popper, which was a neat juxtaposition of old and new styles of a similar art
- a paint can stacker, who stacked rollers between paint cans then stood on top on a balance board (our thought - "that's never a good idea" - when he had paint can/roller/paint can/roller at 90/paint can/balance board, all on top of scaffolding, then stood on top)
- a strap flyer, paired with a dancer - wow! very erotic routine
- perch balancer/aerialist pair, which is an old-time art that is rarely seen these days
We are so glad we went to the show. Next time we need closer seats, but it was a packed house.
