Arrived home from Denver Sunday at 4:30 pm, was greeted by an enthusiastic spouse (always a nice feeling!! ) that was excited to “take me downtown to show me something”. So changed socks and headed back out to downtown Ann Arbor. The “surprise” was a nice one. The Strange Fruit touring company was putting on shows for the Ann Arbor Summer Arts Festival.
The “Strange Fruit” touring company was putting on shows for the summer arts festival.
They do put on an entertaining show, all done strapped onto “sway poles”. Twelve foot long fiberglass poles they stand on and . . . sway. Check the photos and their web site. They have visited forty countries and many places in the US (they are Australians) and if they happen to visit a location close to you go see them. This particular show was called “Swoon” and even a non-artsy person like me could see why it was called that…. they all fell in, and out, and back in love again after their awakening.
May your poles never break,
George
Thanks for the kind words. I am “George” the orange guy in the front of the shot. Ann Arbor was amazing. Currently in Denver performing at the Cherry Creek Arts Festival. We are all enjoying touring the US so much, we all want to come back next year.
All the best,
