THe BIG top

Yes, I have finally arrived at the big top I will be performing in... I am going into my third week here now and I have to say the whole experience so far has been absolutely amazing... upon arriving here I had a bunch of meetings and then went straight into rehearsals... by day 5 I was performing my first "double" (two shows in one day)... it all happened so fast that I didn't really have time to think - just DO and that is what got me through this trial by fire... and in a way I am glad it happened this way because in a situation like this, the more you think about what you are actually doing the more nervous you get.... so that was cool..... since then I have been working all day, coming home, dropping into bed and then waking up the next morning, getting dressed and going back to the big top.... hence I haven't had the time to write in my blog.... anyway, time has run out yet again... so, here we go - back off to the big top!

Integration madness

Hey everyone, ever since I have arrived in Minneapolis it has been very intense and Cirque are shooting to have me integrated into the show by the weekend so I doubt I will have time to take pix or blog... might be able to squeeze the odd tweet in... but check back around the beginning of next week and I shall try to have something up by then :o)
