La Clique

Tonight we joined Kevin Martin, our friend from BU's study abroad program for La Clique, which is part of the Auckland Festival that is going on right now. The is described as a fusion of cabaret, new burlesque, circus sideshow and contemporary vaudeville. It was amazing!

Kevin had invited us and 7 other people who are supporters of the BU program in New Zealand. Kevin coordinates the study abroad here and arranges internships for students while they are studying. Last year, Jeremy arranged for one of the students to work at PwC. I had also been in contact with Kevin when we first arrived and was looking for a job. He has become a good friend to us, so it was sad to say goodbye. He does make it to Boston every so often, so we hope to see him on one of his visits!

The show was a mix of magic, acrobatics, singing, dancing and many other things. We sat at a booth towards the back of the room - thankfully as they picked on people who were up close! We would recommend the show if it comes to your area anytime soon.
