Again to the big area near the entrance to town, again for a spectacular piece of entertainment. This time from a group from Italy whose show was loosely about the 400th anniversary of Galileo's telescope and "how it influenced, for better or for worse, what it means to be human." What we saw was:
lots of harness trapeze with film showing behind them
children on trapeze! so cute. I think they were supposed to represent Columbus and Da Vinci, and then there was one other
ballerinas with headlamps on
a giant balloon of the moon with a face, and dangling from it a woman on trapeze, which moved through the crowd
A woman in a huge bowl of water
A woman in a giant clam shell
My favorite was a duet dance in which the woman was harnessed to the trapeze and the man wasn't. She lifted him a few times. Where much of the show lacked in strong choreography, this was a beautiful dance and neat use of the trapeze.
Not as spectactular or polished as Pan Optikum, but pretty in its art and very Italian looking.
