One of our top notch object manipulation artists’, Ryan was asked to be the feature entertainer at a wedding for Slice TV’s Rich Bride Poor Bride!
Our Unicycle & Juggling coach Nigel was also featured in this episode, where he shows some of his Yo-Yo skills (as he is the reigning national Yo-Yo champion).
The couple came to the Vancouver Circus School (you will see some footage of our circus classes in action in the background) to check out the scene and to talk to our event director & artists to see what entertainment to go with for their wedding!
The May long weekend was certainly a busy weekend for all of us at the Inner Ring! It truly was a circus!
While we were preparing to finish our final performance ofBOUNCE at the Massey Theatreon May 21 & 22, the Whistler Arts Council invited the Inner Ring to come to the Village Square to set up our brand new aerial rig and have aerialists do beautiful aerial demonstrations. The Whistler Arts Council also asked us to do our show, BOUNCE on Saturday May 22 & 23 in the middle of the Village Square!
It was a rainy but wonderful weekend full of jaw dropping aerials, trampoline as well as a very “bouncy” experience with our very talented cast of BOUNCE, complete with free bouncy balls for the children at the Village Square!
