'I can see people smiling or laughing or scared and that makes you feel very connected.'
Growing up in Edinburgh meant that Miranda Menzies was always surrounded by performers thanks to events like the Fringe Festival at her doorstep. From an early age she always wanted to get into showbiz and when she completed high school she went on to study acting at higher education.
"I've come here by accident but I think this is definitely where I'm going to stay." She told the MEN. "I feel like it joins together all the parts of my puzzle that I didn't know there. It's funny how one thing leads to another."Hair hanging is a circus act where performers are suspended by their hair. While suspended they perform a number of acrobatic poses with some using props.
"It's different though. You're not in control, but you practice so much that you really know how your body feels, where your body is in space so I could probably do all the routines without having to look. I know where the hoop is or i know where the edge of the stage is during hair hanging.Miranda performs at La Clique, which is a showcase of the world's best circus and cabaret acts. The show features a host of acts such as stunt performers, sword swallowers and comedians.
