Though he desperately tries to catch her attention, Alan passes unnoticed
by the glamorous goddess Olga. Finally, the once unattainable object of his
affection is within arms reach as their two worlds entwine mid-flight in
mesmerizing aerial dance.
This is a romantic aerial dance between a
woman (the strikingly beautiful Russian Olga Vershinina) and a dwarf
(Brazilian Alan Jones Silva). This is the one act that will make your
jaw drop and elicit gasps of awe. The apparatus is a combination of
the Aerial Silks and the Cloud Swing. Olga begins by performing
aerial contortion in the flowing white fabric while incorporating some
extremely dangerous looking Spanish Web style drops on the silk and
the Cloud Swing. Alan performs an Aerial Silk solo with the same
skills as the performers in La Nouba and Dralion. And, to a beautiful
piano melody the pair flies over the heads of the audience in a
touching and romantic moment.
