Reminiscent of a young girl thoughtfully playing out her game of hopscotch, the artist is a study in nimble, dexterity and relaxed grace. Balanced on a wire measuring less than two centimeters in diameter, no one breaks her concentration or disturbs the lively pace of her intricate footwork for she is in a world which only she commands.

The "Tight Wire" performance made its first appearance during the Japanese Tour in 1996 and continued through Hong Kong that same year. The act was performed by Molly Saudek, a young artist from the United States, and was not continued when Alegrìa went to Europe (1997-1998).
