“A full moon celebration in the Borker Padenbos” A review by Luuk Verpaalen.

“The high trees in the Padenbos are illuminated by fire pots under their crown, catching the light of the full moon. Two drummers bring a compelling rhythm through in which three didgeridoo players braids their mysterious sounds. It looks like we have ended up in a ritual full moon party. Or in any voodoo session, as one that appears in the movie Angel Heart. Will Lisa Bonet suddenly appear from the bushes and starts a wild dance?  We hope so, but we know better. It is Friday evening, just after eleven.

We are watching a performance by Clinch, the duo acrobats who are capable of more than gravity defiant body arts.
The fireshow that they bring is tailor-made for an environment like this. The strange shadows on the trees and burning light circles have magical hallucinating effects and let you experience a different world.
Earlier this evening, they performed their acrobatic act, now its the turn of this show with fire and music. Meters long flames are being blown, the dangerously torches flying back and forth between the bushes. “
