Expérience
Cadre (Suspended Cradle)

A flash of light and a boom of thunder bring forth a storm. The name of the act simply means Cradle, or Suspended Cradle, and it is the cradle that supports an amazing assortment of characters. And amongst the rain filled universe a team of zebras, donned in black and white striped skins, frolic about and take to the air trying to maintain their balance as a storm thunders around them. The real treat comes while as it rains around them, the zebra move from grid to grid, and the spectators move closer and closer to the edge of their seats wondering if one will slip and fall. Whose to really say why this act is a favorite of mine... is it the ingenious creation of the apparatus itself? Perhaps it is "Ephra", the musical track accompanying the performance. «O»
