I did a lot of trapeze stuff when I did 'Pippin' and continued to do it afterward. Flying is so fun, and I was used to the harness idea, but these harnesses are like intense, full bodysuit things.
I'm never gonna be somebody who's gonna fall down from the sky on a trapeze. That's not me. I really want to make sure that my focus stays on connecting with the audience.
I was all in gold sequins for Million Dollar Mermaid, 50 feet in the air.
Muhammad, my friend, I'm getting very scared. Teach me how to love my brothers who don't know the law, and what about the deal on the flying trapeze?
I never got to see the circus... I was always in love with being a trapeze artist, though.
I can now put 'experienced aerialist' on my resume.
Living as an actor is rather like living life on the trapezes in a circus. Every time you jump on, you have to pray that, when the time comes for you to jump off, there is another trapeze swinging your way.
The trapeze was my first love. To me, it's normal. It's all I've ever known.
I've been doing lots of trapeze, and so much of it is holding your own weight.
I've been taking a trapeze class for the last couple of years. I'm working on my double back flip right now.
