Clément Dazin

Our body speaks through his actions. What’s happening there when the body and mind do not agree?
This project is to transcribe the emotional states through movement, dance and juggling. Playing with the public’s perception, alternating slow movement, jerky, fast, and using the top of the loop.

Walid El Yafi

From France, with his unfailing clubs for a spectacular show entirely based on technical power and research of the fluidity of the movement. The clubs explode in the air like fireworks and absurd manipulations and unexpected balances find their place in the execution and surprise the viewer.

Chiara Marchese
A ringing in the distance … silently … accompanied by his colorful orchestra, a character will fight against gravity.
She’s an equilibrist in search of his bravery. A sweet melody will ring to celebrate the venture: riding a unicycle on a wire as thin as a pencil ….
A gentle show, created for the theater and adapted for the street. Suitable for all types of audiences.

 

 

Ali Akbar Rahati Nover
Two flowers for Ali who made of flowerstick a brand new art.
Deep study and high technical level merge to create an innovative and original style.

La Sbrindola“The Sbrindola” is a circus & music duo with an incredible energy level and an unpredictable madness.
A juggler and a drummer: on one hand a frantic search for rhythm and music, on the other one an extrovert, embodied and bizarre way of juggling. All this leads to a perfect cocktail of fun and madness .. HAVE FUN!

 

 

Tommaso Panagrosso
I think that the technique enhances the genius and I am often aware that I am a “free slave” to it. I say slave because to have a clean technical, free of parasitic motions you have to train for hours almost every day.
Free because the more developed is your vocabulary, the more you are free to express yourself, when you are no longer the object victim, unconscious takes shape.

 

 

 

Raul García
I am a back and two long arms …
and I am also five balls that melt in motion with him,
he … we’re not sure what it is, but we know he has come
to show a juggling performance, even if we sometimes forget.
