Why this is awesome: Brent McCoy is one of the many wonderful performers in this year's IndyFringe Festival taking place right now in Indianapolis. I went to see 2 plays with my 13-year-old cousin on Saturday. As we were heading back to the car, we stopped when we noticed Brent preparing to juggle with fire.
Little did we know that the show didn't stop there. He then jumped up on an orange ball, started juggling the fire sticks again, then walked his way across the street on top of the orange ball when the green sign said "Walk." His crowd started out with maybe 8 or 9 people. But by the time he reached the other side of the street, there were about almost 50 people applauding his brave, but crazy routine.
If you're in town, check out Brent McCoy's remaining shows during IndyFringe. If you're not in town, go and support your local theater community. There's a lot of awesome artists out there you may be missing!
