A Jewel of Acrobatic Design
Perched on high canes, Erika steps above gravity

    • This visually striking performance is a dynamic and refined creation; seemingly delicate, this surprisingly strong performer flawlessly achieves the most difficult and perilous balancing figures and contortions, atop high slim canes.

      The varying height of the balancing canes, reaching up to 4 meters as the performance progresses, adds a spectacular element of danger to the execution.

      The ever-increasing difficulty of the movements are performed in a challenging choreography in which Erika Lemay's grace and physical skills are displayed at their finest.
