Jump roping is a lot harder than it looks, as Cirque du Soleil performer Adrienn Banhegyi reminded us when she stopped by the CultureMap office for a visit.
The 29-year-old Hungarian — who has, by the by, acquired a number of Rope Skipping World Championships in the two decades since she took up the competitive sport — dared staffers to a round of Double Dutch that made us yearn for the skills we lost as preteens.
It looks like we won't be presenting a CultureMap Cirque troupe after all.
Watch the video above to get a glimpse of our flops and foibles and to see a sneak peek of Banhegyi's performance in Quidam, which takes over the Toyota Center from March 6 through 10. Tickets start at $40 for adults and $32 for children 12 and under.
