Chat with Acrobatic Artists - Harley Timmermans, Isaac Lawry and Thomas Gorham.

Here's a quick chat with some of the Headfirst Acrobat crew who were in Perth performing Railed and PreHysterical at the Fringe. I managed to see preHysterical and got the thumbs up from the 4-year-old sitting near me as well as the squalls of laughter and audience Kids interacting with the cast throughout the entire show. Lots of skillful acrobatics, including a "Mr. Lu style" no hand headstand, on a swinging trapeze, all woven into an entertaining story with a few cough "adult references" to keep us chuckling throughout. One highlight I enjoyed was the fastpaced hula-hoop (Chelsea Angell) and Chinese Hoop diving ( Harley) combination act. Great work guys.

Chat with Acrobatic Artists - André Augustus, GOM Circus

I had the pleasure of meeting André at the APAC training in January this year. As well as a being a beautiful man who both onstage and offstage radiates warmth and personality, André's acrobatic prowess and strength is like a leopard in his fluidity and movements. He is both an incredible trusted base as well as owning a very high-set of skills in performing such as a free balancing headstand while unlocking a rubrics cube which he performs in the show.

Welcome André.
