This juggling virtuoso manipulates bowling pins, soccer balls,
hats and ping-pong balls with his hands, feet, head and even his mouth.
Of course. What better metaphor for the ephemeral quality of flight?
Using ping-pong balls, volleyballs, and pins, the juggler does his best
to defy the law of gravity. But as Icarus knows, what goes up...
A young man bursts onto the stage to perform a unique, high-energy solo
juggling/ manipulation number. The juggler is dressed in a "jester" costume
(the same costume worn by the porters in Icarian Games, but with a
blue and fluorescent green/yellow colour scheme). The music for the
act is up tempo with a South American/Brazilian influence. The
juggler begins with regular juggling pins, then switches to
manipulation and juggling of soccer balls. He then juggles ping-pong
balls with his mouth, spitting them and catching them in rapid
succession. As a finale he takes straw hats worn by the Water Meteor
boys (who act as characters/assistants during the act) and throws four
of them like Frisbees, but so that they return to him like boomerangs.
He continues to juggle the hats making, a dramatic dive to catch the
last one. This is definitely a high-calibre act and a real crowd
pleaser...
