We head off to see Cirque du Soleil in Moore Park under their big top. Splendid show, very exciting. There’s a strange story line based around a big egg and lots of strange insects. The performers are all dressed as strange insects in amazing costumes.
Some acts are circus standards – slack wire, trapeze artists, people dangling from ropes – but there are twists to them all.
For me, the highlight was based around an artificial climbing wall and some hidden trampolines. The performers were making spectacular leaps down from the high wall into the trampolines and bouncing back up and hanging on the face of the wall. Very enjoyable night out, marred only by traffic jams getting there and queues to get out of the car park.
