Sky Walk

Today the STREB Extreme Action performance company were appearing at several London landmarks in an event called One Extraordiary Day.

The second event was three performers, including Elizabeth Streb, walking down the side of City Hall. I only knew about it after I saw it on the TV news this morning, I dashed out but only caught the last few seconds as they descended to the ground.

To create a sense of excitement, the time and location of each event was only released a short time before each one happened. Which is all very well, but it meant I only caught the tail end of the Trafalgar Square event as well.

The official blurb...
"For a single extraordinary day in July, commissioned especially by the Mayor of London and London 2012 Festival, staged as part of LIFT 2012, Brooklyn's visionary choreographer Elizabeth Streb will thrill London with an electrifying series of daredevil, surprise events right on its doorstep. Something magical is coming. Something you will never forget."
