Mayor Foster Walks the Wire for Cirque

Mayor Bill Foster took a tour of Cirque du Soleil's KOOZA Thursday. His trip included a wardrobe change and a chance to walk across a low wire.

On Thursday, Mayor Bill Foster read a proclamation to Cirque du Soleil; thanking them from coming to St. Petersburg and letting them know they are always welcome. 

After that, Foster had a very Cirque wardrobe change and then walked across the low wire with the help of some crewmembers. 

Yesterday, Cirque also announced that an additional KOOZA performance has been added on Thursday, Dec. 13, at 3:30 p.m.
