ON A ROLL!
Maezie and Eva workshop ideas for the chocolate factory conveyor belt handstand act.
This is new territory as holding a handstand is hard enough — but we thought it would be super cool to traverse the conveyor belts while inverted. Why not?
Tickets for THE GOLDEN TICKET go on sale at the end of the week at www.circuswest.com.
Come see our show June 23-26 at the PNE Gardens and see what else we have been cooking up!
