with a spectacular show featuring
Erik Aberg:
Erik Åberg is a juggler from Sweden. His main focus is on research for new techniques of throwing and manipulating objects. He has been invited to conventions in France, Greece, Japan, America, Israel and Finland. In contemporary circus he´s been cooperating with the companies Circo Aereo, Idiot Savant, Croissant Bleu and Cirkus Cirkor. Eriks specialities are rolling and placing techniques with balls on the head and box manipulation.
Rhys Thomas:
20 years ago today, Rhys Thomas began performing comedy juggling for a living. He's still alive! Literally by dogsled, cruiseship, jet plane and solar auto Rhys has delivered his "JuggleMania" shows to theatres and festivals on three continents. Accomplishments include (but are not limited to) Artist in Residence at the Smithsonian Institution, Best American Act at the Street Performer Worldcup in Shizuoka Japan, International Jugglers Assn. and European Jugglers Assn. command performances, and did I mention 20 years of making a living juggling?
Jen Slaw from Philadelphia
Jérémie Arsenault:
Juggling since he was 15 years old and currently in his final year at the acclaimed École de Cirque de Québec , Jérémie Arsenault will present a high flying combination of Diabolos and Acrobatics that will take your breath away.
Jade Dussault:
Also from the École de Cirque de Québec
An acrobat, juggler, and circus enthusiast Jade has been involved in performance since she was 9 years old.
how would you describe her act with Hoops?
Verbs lots of Verbs..
>> Spinning with Passion
>> everything whirls
>>striking presicion
>>Elegant flexibility
Jorden Moir:
a 20 yr old footbagger/juggler from Hamilton, Ontario, Jorden has been Footbagging for 7 years. He has also been juggling (mostly balls) and performing for 6 years.
He is currently ranked 2nd in the WORLD!
and lastly
Meghan Claire Pike:
Meghan is a well known face around the Scottish and UK juggling scene and her fluid contact staff routines are always well received by jugglers and the public alike. From fast spins to graceful body rolls there's a bit of something for everyone. It is rare to see this uncommon skill executed quite so artistically.
I'm soo excited for this and I hope to see more staffers out here this year!!
