Friday 13th March saw Clever Hansel and me heading up to Palmerston North, to be in the fabulous butterfly show, Lola and Friends – Clothesline Circus. A butterfly show exists only for one night, it is partly improvised, partly rehearsed and even if we did it a second night it would be a different butterfly.
We thought our show was to be in the smaller Globe Theatre but it was in the big, 200 seater one with a large stage and all the cool things of a properly spec’ed theatre. Look at the amazing set! I love how different it looks in different lights.
Well, who was the star of this ensemble piece? Me? Hans? Lola? Nope. It was Chase, the Circus Dog. A rescue Pomeranian of extremely even temperament (a polite way of saying he simply can’t be arsed doing anything but sit)





It was a beautiful, delightful, magical show and a huge tribute to our darling friend Lola Illusion.
I am really busy, I’ve had four shows this month already and one big one to go. The year is filling up, but who knows what will happen with this awful virus though. International travel is required later in the year but we can’t book yet so we’ll have to see what happens. I wish the world all the best with love xo.
