Cirque du Soleil is running a new series on the Bravo network (here in
the US) called Solstrom. It is a series of performances with each week
having a theme. The first was Romance and all the acts center around two
people falling in love.
One of the acts involved a man unicycling (looked like a 24" wheel) in
circles doing a balletic routine with the object of his desire. It was a
combo acrobalance, dance thing. The unicycling was not particularly
spectacular but the overall effect was very nice.
However, the guy did one dismount that was truly amazing. He comes to a
standstill with the pedals in the horizontal position and does a
complete back flip into the air and lands on his feet.
Many of the acts are adapted from some of the existing Cirque shows but
the juggling act, which is extremely erotic, was not something I've
seen, although I suspect that it might come from their new Vegas show
Zumanity. The two jugglers perform on a cafe table and contort and
writhe around each other while doing solo and shared ball juggling
tricks.
This weeks' theme is Twins, but unfortunately I missed it and wont be
able to catch the replays tomorrow at 3:30 EST and Sunday at 11:00 AM
EST.
