Most of the performance was the intense dancing I have just described, but there was a lot of comic relief as well. Young performers dressed as clowns chased around a boy dressed as a clown fish. No matter how many times he tried to practice with the diabolo, they would steal his and run. It may have been directed towards children in order to keep them interested, but I have to say that I laughed my head off at the theatrics these kids could express.
The Taiwanese dancers came through America and Canada on a month-long tour, but if you ever find them performing in your area, I would highly suggest seeing them. The show was so entertaining I almost want to force my husband away from juggling and get him a diabolo.
