From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
Two for the price of one, two former gymnasts from England who went on to become a hit with Cirque du Soleil, Kevin and Andrew Atherton, turn 39 today.
Andrew and Kevin were born in the UK, but now live in Los Angeles, California.
Both were members of the Great Britain gymnastics team until their retirement from competition at the age of twenty-four years old.
In 2000 Andrew and Kevin joined the world renowned Cirque du Soleil to develop and create an aerial straps number for their touring show Varekai. They went on to perform 3,034 shows with Varekai. Never missing a single performance.
Andrew and Kevin left Varekai in August 2010 to begin working on IRIS. A new resident show created by Cirque du Soleil, exclusively performing at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. IRIS ran for eighteen months. Their final performance was on January 19th 2013.
Andrew and Kevin are currently performing in the show Zarkana at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
They have had much of their personal work photographed, internationally exhibited and published.
Along with sharing a passion for circus arts their common interests include health, fitness and nutrition, along with real estate and interior design.
