Cirque Du Soleil

Thanks Andrew for taking me to see Cirque Du Soleil. It was a unique and inspiring experience.

Argh the vampire is here so my brain isn't working too well. Might add some more later...

Added July 19:
The program was Varekai. So there was a story behind it. I thought it was a fallen angel or something. The character's called Varekai. Doesn't say if he's an angel or not. And he encounters all sorts of alien life forms... etc, etc. (I don't get the "rebirth" part...) Didn't know they have a variety of shows. A circus is a circus... guess I'm wrong.

The costumes were so nice~! I wonder if they pad the puffy sleeves and thighs with sponges. The performances were really well calculated. Except for the magic show, which seemed totally out of place. And a few other segments didn't quite help the story flow either. Oh well, that's only a bonus. The main thing was the acrobats, and they were impressive. Overall it was more like a concert, though. (There were life singing and music.) Somehow I still get the idea stuck in my head that, a circus should have performing exotic animals... hahaha....

Haha... so that you'll focus on the rest. Naaah, isn't it courtesy, though?

Now that I think about it... that was also my first live circus show! It was all TV for me.
