Experience
Fil de Fer


When Isabelle Brisset (1990) or Nicky Dewurst (1991-1993) moves across the void, the beauty of her/his movements hangs by tightrope.

The act opens with one of the Flounes moving about on a wooden ball. He spins, dances, and jumps until the Everyman enters the stage. The Everyman and the Floune try to shake hands again, and this time they succeed. The two begin to dance until the other Flounes enter, the fifth Floune's ball, do a little trick with a quilt, and reveal a tightrope walker.

Don't let the fact that this act takes place less than ten feet from the stage floor fool you; it's not about the height... it's about staying on through wild walks, flips and spins! Combine skill, concentration, and a hint of laughter and this act comes together quite nicely. Hint of laughter you say? Oh, yes... when the Grand Chamberlain attempts to get in on the act (and fails miserably), you can't help but laugh out loud. He'll get it in the end though and the two will perform flawlessly together. The pair's amazement is later shattered by the Grosse Femme, followed by the meldoy of her arrival. She'll chase off our Everyman... to give room to our next performance.
