The first ever International Juggling Festival in Myanmar went by in a bit of a blur for those of us involved. Now, there’s time to look at the photos reflecting glimpses of an event brought to life by the efforts of so many people in so many different ways. In honour of those who had faith in this project, we’d like to present highlights, one month later. We’ll start with the first show, Night at the Circus at 50th street bar on February 6. Skill, danger, surprises – a great show and a great night. Thanks to Mark & staff for your support, it was awesome. Thanks also to the photographers who captured some fabulous images of the night.
