Yaron has elevated the way Australia perceives circus, both nationally and internationally ... I mean remarkable.

When you're a performer, of course you want an audience, but it's very, very different from courting fame.

Mind the gap - it's the distance between life as you dream it and life as it is.

I think we should stop drinking bottled water. There's no need to be drinking it if you're living in western communities. The other thing I would suggest - and I feel it particularly here in Australia, because we have very severe drought - is to be aware of how much you're actually consuming. Right now, it's very rainy, but that doesn't mean we can drink all the water we want. Conserving and constantly thinking, "how much do I really need?" should definitely be part of our vocabulary.

I'm one of those strange beasts who really likes a corset.
