“Oh my God, she’s flying.” One enchanted girl whispered as she watched breath-taking aerial circus acts defy gravity in Greenwich.
A huge crowd had gathered to see the stunning Hangar Arts Trust show in the beautiful grounds of the Royal Naval College.
And everyone, young and old, completely fell under the spell of these bewitching entertainers – I could tell because most people’s jaws were on the ground.
It was just moments before the world became fixated on Danny Boyle’s opening ceremony when these daredevils took to the sky on ropes and ribbons as part of Greenwich Summer Festival.

The magic got underway slightly later than planned as slippery rain threatening to scupper everything, but as the heavens dried up a cheer rose and Matilda, our first performer, stepped up.
Dressed as a stunning flower fairy, this dainty blonde was just amazing to watch.
Dancing in the air, sometimes upside-down, she supporting herself on a bar between two ropes.
