Looks like these days the Fornasari family can be found bullfighting... with terriers. Cute!

Someone teach me Iron Jaw please?
Tour has rendered me too lazy/tired to do anything more specific, so let me just say that all of these are freaking incredible and if the short description piques your interest, you should probably watch it!

Do no watch this.
Veronica Melis and Beatriz Sayad in Daniele Finzi Pasca's Donka. As they get into position on the floor stage left, a live feed of them is projected onto a curtain at center stage. Then they do this hilariously impossible hand to hand act. Reminds me a lot of Les Kiriki, Acrobates Japonais by Segundo de Chomón from 1907. Funny, sometimes the stuff you think is brilliant and original has already been done, over 100 years ago. The element of being able to watch them live, though, made it even funnier.
I saw 7 doigts do a cabaret show at Completement Cirque that was thrown together, but utterly amazing. I've only heard great things about their productions and this video is no exception. Double full through 4th hoop!?
I'm kind of upset that there are no NYC dates. That really needs to happen. I think it would do well here.
