You know you've been living in Surry Hills for a while when the sight of hipsters relaxes you. Vancouver is lovely and the people are really nice, it's just taking a while to re-calibrate our perception of normality.* We went to Cirque du soleil and there was something relaxing about it, then we spotted it Hipsters. I don't consider myself one (stinks of effort dude), but they become part of your life in Slurry.
A brief review: started strong with springy frogs, truly scary female acrobat on rings/ribbons, clowns great, interesting juggling act, strange carpet spinning women, when did circuses become sexy? Oh and set workers in costume and making scenery changes part of the act is great. Good sound and some rather special costumes.
*For instance we walked past a parking lot underneath an overpass behind the hockey stadium that had been filled with planter boxes and was growing lettuce and some rather bolted rocket.
