• When and how did you start street performing?
  

I started when I went to the Sydney olympics for another job, it didn't happen so I stayed and made some equipment for my show at the Rainbow Circus. I made 10 minute shows with acrobatics and comedy.

1. Is it your first time in Spain? How was it?

Yup the first time performing in Europe. I like Spain. It was great to perform at the festivals, better than the street, but I like the street too, its more tourists, but the local atmosphere is good to get to know.

1. What do you think of Barcelona as a place to street perform?

It is interesting, lots of tourists, police hassle you, and its is generally weird to work on La Ramblas. Junkies, beggars, the haunched over shaking woman walking on the fringe of your show, Michael Jackson, the limbless, the police again. Ummmg... its a big city.

1. What inspired your show? Can you tell us about it?

I like pole and I tried it on the street in a small town festival It was great, but I didnt have any crowd skills. So first I made a handbalancing show for the street and did it for about a year, then I made what I am using today.
The show is acrobatic,chinese style on the pole. It is a 5 metre pole . I climb to the top and throw some flying things into the audience and make some jokes with props. I juggle plastic ducks and the finale is I dive headfirst into the bucket of duckies! It is a street show so there are lots of jokes and gags in between. I like the small parts the most, the parts with children. Pole acrobatics looks amazing and it has great comic aspects,so I take advantage of that.
