Cirque de Demain 2013

The 34th Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain is happening as we speak. As usual, I have a number of friends competing and wish them all good luck! You can find the list of those competing on the official website!

Sadly, ARTE is not broadcasting the festival online this year. The best I have been able to find is this video talking a little bit about the festival with highlights of the artists practicing.

Cirque de Demain is notoriously political, so I can't help but feel that the likelihood of the acts being highlighted in this video winning medals is pretty high. I suppose we'll find out tomorrow!

To all the artists competing: May your landings be stuck, your juggling accessories go undropped, and all other flips and twists be executed to perfection!

Merde!
