Photo Flash: Neil Patrick Harris Walks the High Wire at ABSINTHE in Las Vegas!

While in Las Vegas over the weekend, actor Neil Patrick Harris (soon to be back on Broadway, starring in Hedwig and the Angry Inch) was spotted enjoying the wild antics from the Strip's hit show ABSINTHE at Caesars Palace on July 11. Having always been a fan of the acro-cabaret variety show, Harris met with the cast afterwards and took on the challenge of walking across the high wire, yet again. Harris attended ABSINTHE in February 2012 and was carried across the high wire sitting on top of Tony "Tightropes" Hernandez's shoulders. This time, Harris took the challenge, defying the laws of gravity as he stood up on top of Hernandez's shoulders and was taken across the high wire from one end to the other. Talk about daring! Harris has always been a friend to the show and the cast welcomed him back with open arms.
