Myself and fellow dancer at Tihany Spectacular.   This photo was taken in our last week after a year and a half with Tihany in Brasil!  Putting on our showgirl makeup for one of the last times in our dressing room.

This photo was taken during a publicity stunt in Sao Paolo for Tihany Spectacular.  A high wire walker from the show, Henry Ayala, crossed the wire spanning from one side of the Edificio Copan to the other.   The Copan is 140m, 38 storeys tall!  15 of us dancers, along with local press stood on the roof to watch him do it.

the daily grind!


I use photos so much as a form of self-promotion and professional networking it is almost second nature.    Photos give a realness to each story, and make everything so much more exciting.
I often think about how that is what is expected now.  With so many jobs being cast through social media performers are renowned for posting up photos of their current show/costumes/makeup/changing room on social media and networking sites to be seen as working professionals.    Its has made me think about perhaps making a personal and a professional Facebook, Twitter and Instagram however.   Over the next couple of weeks that will be one of my projects.
