Can circus really tackle 9/11?

The Guardian: "The last time I saw Gypsy Snider, she was catching flying knives in the crook of her knee, as if it was the most ordinary thing in the world. This was in a show called Loft by Les 7 Doigts de la Main, a troupe Snider co-founded in 2002 with fellow escapees from the mighty Cirque du Soleil. Their intention was to create a new, intimate kind of circus – in which performers, rather than coming across as superhuman types who get blasted out of cannons, simply seemed like more athletic versions of you and I."
