NUIT BLANCHE 2016 - LE FREAK SHOW DE LA TOHU

There was a huge party at the Cité des arts du cirque as part of the Nuit Blanche celebrations. Billed as Le Freak Show De La Tohu, there was plenty of oddness for everyone. The evening was directed by Toxique Trottoir and featured the sounds Speakeasy Electro Swing and The Blue Mushroom Sirkus Psyshow's tribute to old time circus. Going along for the ride were people on stilts, a bearded lady, Frankenstein and of course a hair dresser in case you were running late.

Not your average Walmart greeter.

The elder-statesman of circus Giovanni Julianni provides a history lesson on circus performers of old.

Jumping on broken glass, probably something you don't want to do at home. Best left to professionals like Miss BonBon Bombay.

Darts in the back, another thing best not done at home unless your The Mighty Leviticus.

The evening would not have been complete without some body paint.

Speakeasy Electro Swing had the joint a jumpin'

One of the many interesting performers at the party.

The only thing sadder then a mime trapped in an invisible box is Frankenstein mime trapped in an invisible box.

Scary!

Some audience participation.

A happy clown on stilts.

The next big thing in hair extensions.

A little Can Can Dance.

The old smashing a cinder block on a bed of nails trick.
