Lead artist, feature act and fire coach for Cirque Du Soleil. Recently for the ZAiA production in Macau from 2010 to 2012. Currently freelancing while between Cirque contracts.
I'm a fire dancer / fire manipulation specialist. I use flaming props such as fire swords, fire ropes, fire staffs, with special effects and pyrotechnics in a combination of dance and martial arts style movements. Ask me anything, and check my website... www.sparkfiredance.com

Yes, at least temporarily until the performer was brought to safety. Medics are side of stage for every dangerous number.

Not too late to be a performer at all. A gent I knew of began acrobalance at 40 and won several awards. You just have to be realistic about what you want to achieve. You'll never have the general physical capabilities of an ex gymnast, but you can specialise in certain tricks, comedy, character etc. 20's easily young enough to reach a pretty high proficiency.

Until a position opened that they needed me for. In my case they had my material for several years. They could call you next week, next year, next decade or never, even if your an amazing artist, it's whether they need you specific skills, body type etc.
