Aloha Live Show!

Another fun show we were invited to be a part of. It was tricky performing aerial silks on this outdoor stage on windy days/nights, but the backdrop of Diamond head during our daytime shows was breath taking! And we had the pleasure of making friends with some amazing dancers of Tahiti Mana who we hope to work with in creating permanent family friendly show together in the future! 
Below is a great review of our first performance at Aloha Live by John Berger. This critic is known to be tough yet fair and honest. 


"Cirque du Soleil-quality routines give the show much of its “wow” factor. The duo, husband-and-wife team David and Angela Saucedo, go aerial first for a series of show-stopping acrobatics performed on, and while hanging from, a large steel hoop. 

They return for a show-stopping “aerial silk” acrobatic routine. Each pose, each combination of graceful movement and sudden motion, is more dramatic than the one before. Watching Angela hang, head down, with only the strength of her husband’s legs keeping her from falling head-first to the floor, is not for the faint-hearted — even with the knowledge that are both trained professionals with the strength, flexibility and grace required. 







The term “Cirque-like” has been overused in Hawaii in recent years, but the couple lives up to the expectations created by that phrase. They would certainly not be out of place in a Cirque du Soleil show."
