My friends and my family, and, well, honestly anyone I meet pretty quickly after I meet them, know that my passion hobby is aerial. Part of the fascination is the process of creating an act to perform – figuring out the choreography, the music, the costume – and the very best show to do that for is 100% Silver Foxes. This year, I am delighted to be able to share a twist on the show’s theme, Classics. My classic is a classic emotion: desire. In this case, the desire to stretch, to reach, to be someone or something else, however briefly, than what you are every day. Those moments happen. I’ve loved the journey of creating this one and I hope you enjoy.
