Beata and I were married from 1989 to 1994. I met her when I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1986 and attended classes at Bikram’s Yoga College of India where Beata was teaching. As mentioned in this posting, Beata hoped to audition for the Cirque du Soleil. The reason why she wanted to work for them gives some insight into how she lived her life. Early in our relationship, the Cirque came to San Francisco and she took me there to see a performer who built an elaborate and fragile pyramid out of chairs and wooden bricks. She pointed out the peak moment when the pyramid was it its highest, most fragile and most dangerous and when the artist was “in the zone” at that point. She reckoned his whole existence was tuned to creating and recreating such moments and she wanted to live like that too. It was a long journey from that day to the time when the clip you posted was made and that journey took an important detour through France. Beta was a Francophile. I can’t remember what triggered it but she was crazy about the country and its culture and that’s why she changed her surname. (She was born Beata Tarr in Hungary in June 1953 so she would have been 61 when she died.) Shortly after we were married, we moved to Nice, France and Beata started to think of a way she could develop her skills in gymnastics and yoga into an art form. The costume you see in your clip was bought from a shop in Nice selling fancy dress to people going to revel at the annual Carnival of Venice. Restaurants in Nice-and all the other popular vacation resorts in the South of France-have a tradition of allowing roving entertainers to perform for diners eating outside, seated in open-air terraces. So Beata started performing the routine you see in the clip there. I carried the black chair and a cassette player, she performed the routine and collected money. It was hugely successful. We earned enough money to survive the summer and this gave Beata the confidence to apply to join the Cirque. She lived in France for some time after we separated then returned to San Francisco and opened her own yoga studio there.

I love April tatro's multicolored leotard!!!

It's great to see a better quality version of this then another version of this I saw on RUclips sometime ago

So very sad, I just found out. I worked with her in 1987/88. You are very correct she was extremely talented. Canadian's may not know this, but in 1992, Denis Lacombe (also on the 1988 Cirque du Soleil tour) and I went to see Angela play 'Puck' in A Midsummer's Night's Dream at the National Theatre, London. The play was directed by Robert LePage whom specifically picked Angela for the role because of her unique talent. It was a very bold and innovative production. Uniquely Angela combined her acting Shakespeare with her contortion skills, performing whole solo speeches in handstand contortion positions, with very dynamic use of her head and eyes concurrently. In other scenes Angela fluidly wrapped herself around the character of 'Bottom' while working 'Pucks' mischievous magic on him; entwined around the actor playing the role of 'Bottom' Angela's feet became his 'big ears' at the point when 'Bottom' ended up being inflicted with the donkey's voice. I don't have any video to share, but this was the production: bbashakespeare.warwick.ac.uk/productions/midsummer-nights-dream-1992-national-theatre-olivier-theatre

Angela Laurier avait 17 ans à la première saison de Pop-Citrouille. Elle restera la seule vraie adolescente à avoir joué dans cette émission-jeunesse, bien connue des enfants et jeunes de l'époque. Elle participait à certains sketches, et a fait plusieurs numéros en chanson. Elle va toujours vivre dans les plus beaux souvenirs de mon enfance. Je l'adorais! On la voit, dès le début de cet épisode, chanter les déboires d'une fille portant des broches... (plus loin dans l'épisode, à 13: 25, elle est déguisée en sorcière, et ensuite, elle chante encore, 19: 01 ... ) ruclips.net/video/mLrI1XjbLK0/видео.html

she is gone ,BUT WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

TOUTE MES SYMPATHIE A LA FAMILLE, JE SUIS VRAIMENT DESOLE

RIP Angela 😔

Incroyable, quel travail pour arriver à de tels performances 🙏🏼🕊❤️👼🕯🌟🙏🏼 Bon voyage belle Angela 🙏🏼😥

Déjà en 1988, 4 ans après la naissance de CdS, Angela voyait la dérive prendre forme. Le business sur l'art. Soleil n'est pas un cirque mais une grosse business qui fait travailler beaucoup de monde dans d'excellentes conditions heureusement. Mais si loin de la vraie magie du cirque et l'émotion que cela nous apporte. Bon voyage Angela. xx

She unfortunately ended her own life a few days ago.

RIP Angela (1962-2024)

Bon voyage au ciel Angela 🕊

Ouch. She is darn good

Wow!! Unbelievable... I mean frontbending and then backbending... That's trully difficult...❤

The things I would’ve done to April in her prime. 🥵🤤

Hey, nice return, any way I could get in contact with you?

Love the crazy 1970's vibe, all the colours. April's costume is fab! Great find here, superb quality. Thanks for sharing! 👌👍

People who eat nuclear bombs for breakfast 👇

🅒🅐🅜🅔 ❤🎉

Yo, she looks like Harley Quinn.

I filmed this in 1998 at Kennywood Park. If you have any questions. The MC is Magician Ben Robinson.

Nice performance

Fascinating vintage contortion acrobatic film footage.

OOO la la Linda Mary!😘😍♥️

❤😍what is the Portugese word for OOO la la?

She is a monster acting, great talent, now I know why she didn't chose follow the cirque, I think she felt more like a free artist, thanks for sharing this content.

Is there a bio on Ivanka?

The Blink Age: this is great(not to mention sexy too)If you say that 20th century circus performances are in danger of becoming forgotten in the 21st century please continue your work by all means.I am into 20th century nostalgia including circus performances from back then to by the way.take care.👍👍

Nice performance

Prank shows suck eggs. They are practically never funny. It's a shame that acrobats have so few opportunities to show their talents on national television. 😔

Talented beautiful woman

Miss Klepper what a superb and majestic pose @ .09 thru ;21 we love you

Legend!!

Very nice

amazing contortion

does anyone know what there saying in the commercial?

April showed her pussy in Star Trek - Assignment Earth.

How easily she lifts her, ❤

Great Performance dear Linda Mary !!!

She's Cute

It seems the girl on top accidentaly kisses the private parts of the girl on the bottom at 10:45 and again at 10:59 the girl on the bottom sort of shuttered

I can’t believe she was only 12 shy off being 13 years old. She’s an incredible performer

The context is learning how to speak german and translating it, or using an GPT4 to "hear" the audio and output some english

Beautiful 🥰 I love these videos so much

I like it 👍

The host looks like a circus freak

Beautiful performance
