As part of our MFA program, my cohort members and I had the exciting opportunity to spend 6 weeks at the FLIC Scuola di Circo in Torino, Italy, getting a broad, intense, exhausting, fun, challenging, exhausting, awesome, and exhausting introduction into the world of circus arts.
At the end of our time there we put together a performance for which we choreographed our apparatus routines, generated transitions and supplementary material, and put it all together (in just a few days).
Here are some shots from our final show:
We did balancey things:
 |
| Nicole on the Rolla-Bolla |
 |
| Mickey on the sphere |
And arialy things:
 |
| Chloe on the Tissue |
and objecty things:
 |
| Sophie and a ball. Object Manipulation! |
And ensembley things:
 |
| yeah...weird stuff |
and partnery things:
 |
| Jared and Mickey on the Chinese Pole |
and sometimes (actually often) scary things:
 |
| Me on the tissue |
 |
| Awesome scary fall! |
and CRAZY things!
It was an excellent (and exhausting) few weeks. And yes, PLEASE try this stuff at home!
