UCLA Performing Arts CAP UCLA –
Circus Oz at Royce Hall


Feb. 4th-Feb. 10th


With a spring-loaded love of the absurd, the internationally heralded troupe Circus Oz has created a fabulous new future From the Ground Up. Join this wildly popular company in a glorious rebellion against the generic as they deliver a delightfully ridiculous show for all ages. This versatile and diverse home-grown mob of quick-witted stunt jumpers are fully charged and raring to go with power-packed aerialists, knockabout jugglers and live-wire musicians all acrobatically suspended in disbelief.

My Flipper 
 
While other toothbrush holders in the market place open and closes manually, the Flipper toothbrush holder opens and closes with the stroke of the toothbrush. Kids will flip out over this hygienic toothbrush storage system. Most people store toothbrushes either in their bathroom cabinet or on a countertop. Every time you flush, droplets of contaminated water spray into the air landing on bathroom surfaces and items on the countertop, such as toothbrushes. This is a quick and easy way of passing along the common cold and other diseases. Flipper provides a great, secure storage solution away from harmful germs and the cap’s side vents allow in just enough air flow for bristles to stay clean and dry.
