Toronto International Circus Festival - Part 2

[chickenfeet]

The main stage show at the festival was amazing. Fesso the clown (yes, another one) hosted and juggled and kept things moving. There were amazing aerialists; rope, hoop trapeze, regular trapeze, silks, and the truly astonishing Silk Road Acrobats; a troupe of Uyghur refugees. There are more than seventy photos in the Flickr set but here's six to get you going.

Looks amazing.

Everybody's upside down!

I really like the simplicity of the acrobats' costumes. It draws my attention to the strength of their bodies.
