8 Songs

Gandini Juggling

Circus, Music/Sound

A series of choreographed juggling vignettes set to 8 classic rock and roll songs. 

A tribute to the mythical landscape of popular music. From Dylan’s stream of consciousness realms to the Velvet Underground’s troubling landscapes, from David Bowie’s soulful escapades to the rocking Rolling Stone’s anthemic joy de vivre.

 

About Gandini Juggling

Formed in 1992 by world-renowned juggler Sean Gandini and champion Rhythmic Gymnast Kati Yla Hokkala, Gandini Juggling continues to be at the vanguard of contemporary circus, reinventing and reinvigorating juggling for the 21st Century.

Their previous street theatre show Smashed was originally commissioned in 2010 for the National Theatre’s Watch This Space Festival and as part of the Greenwich+Docklands International Festival. Since developing the piece into a 60-minute theatrical show, Smashed has gone on to be performed globally over 200 times, reaching audiences of over 90,000.
