PETIT ENCORE?
Stumbling across this post from Sting about his friend Philippe Petit, the highwire walker who once walked between the Twin Towers, reminded me of a note from H.: She attended the recent screening of the film about him, and afterwards, in a chat with Elizabeth Streb, Petit said he would have some sort of anniversary performance on August 7, 2024.
