Man that was great! Thanks for sharing. One thing that I would like to know is does most of the acts (Magic) are their shows done surrounded? Because when I performed on ice in Dubai I was surrounded. Thanks again.

Hi Michael,
Yes, if you work in the Circus or Christmas Circus, it will be in the round. The good news for magicians/ illusionists is that they are given the longest time in an act compared to other acts. Other traditional theatre venues are regular proscenium stages although some dinner theatres can be in the round or on multiple stages as well. So, manipulation type acts with sensitive angles will find it harder to adapt to all venues in Europe. J C
