One of the entertainments put on in the village this weekend was the "Lonely Circus". A single guy with a local (Jean-Marc) as a side. He did slack rope walking, throwing his cap around and catching it with his foot, throwing it onto a water bottle, all while balancing on the slack rope. At the end he did some leaping about on the tight rope, including standing sideways on it.
He sketched the locals before the performance, and you could keep the sketches if you saw one you liked. Good fun. Food and drinks beforehand, music after. Simple, effective entertainment. Cool.
Fun gentle entertainment always hits a sweet spot.
ReplyDeleteMust be summer, Mark.
ReplyDeleteSomeone tried to explain 'Slack rope' to me recently, and I am still not sure what it means...
ReplyDeleteThinking here, Scrobs, that it might mean “not tight”. Open to suggestion here of course.
