I've never seen anything come close to the "Snake Dance."<br /><br /> "Janine Janik (1931 - 1985) & Christian Arnaut (1912 - 2003)"<br /><br />Do you know the cause of death for either or both of these performers? It seems that Janine died early on, relative to today's life expectancies. Arnaut lived for much longer it seems.<br /><br />Thanks for such a wonderful blog. I would never have known about any of these performers or "physical comedy" until I found my way here, via a Facebook post!
