Tour start at Bath Fringe!

Yesterday we were finally on the road to the first festival on our summer tour. It was Alcina the base, Silvia the flyer, Lina the director and I. Four happy women heading west in a big blue van.

When we came to Bath we checked in to the hostel and went out to one of the meeting points of the festival, the Spiegeltent, where a band played the most beautiful English folk music. 

After all the rehearsals it felt wonderful to drink a half pint of beer, listening to the concert and feeling that now: now are we here. We're together and it's soon showtime!

I like to discover a new town, the excitement before a show and being in a context; my circus world. 

I really love this part of the work. Check the performance space, set-up, sound-check and get comfortable backstage.  Make-up, warm-up, some biscuits and then PERFORM! It's such a nice festival and the staff and the audience are all very friendly.

Bench is on tour and Rebecka is happy!!!
