Guest performance series Play
The Games We Play is a new piece by Gandini Juggling, a group of artists who have been exploring the joyful and complex world of juggling and choreography for 30 years.
Co-founder/directors Sean Gandini and Kati Ylä-Hokkala invite us to enter the joyous, complex world of juggling and choreography with this eye-opening user guide to their performance. It’s an animated self-portrait of a pioneering duo and their company, with a repertoire of some thirty productions staged more than six thousand times all over the world.
Like all their work The Games We Play is a celebratory exploration that asks what is juggling and what can it be? And what is art and what can art be? You’ll be dazzled and delighted as they answer these and other questions in inimitable, gravity-defying style.
