Eric is a real fool. He is brave man who puts himself in a danger zone of improvised, spontaneous performance. It is a very rare performer who will take to the stage without a script, or a plan; letting the moment take control.
I saw the final show on Sunday afternoon, so perhaps Eric had some masks that had developed over the previous shows. He certainly had a great rapport with the audience; in particular TigerFace who assisted with the card tricks.
The performance was supposed to last 50 minutes, but there was such an energy in the room that it felt like it was over in no time at all. This man’s brain works at high speeds, jumping from mask to mask with great humour and the vulnerability of the true fool.
