  • Dralion

    I'm not really a fan of the circus, at least till I'm dragged there. I always get the impression that entertainment such as these were meant for a time before Internet and television was invented. Anyway, I headed down for the very renown French circus Cirque du Soleil. They come by Melbourne every year and apparent annually to Singapore as well. This was one of the three troops which perform around the world. Their theme this year was entitled "Dralion". That's dragon and lion by the way.

    Live music, as good as it can be. Lord of the Ring like singing. The stunts were quite wowing as well. However, apart from the music, singing, costumes and acrobatics.. it was not as much as I expected. The storyline, if there was one, was difficult to decipher. I can't really recall much from the last circus I followed, which was the Royal London Circus back when I was in primary school apart from the animals and wire walks. Cirque du Soleil was tidier and had a classier feel to it.

    Unfortunately, no photos for video recordings were permitted. We almost got thrown out for the three shots we snapped.

    It was still a fun time. ^ ^
