Description
The Rope (La Corda) is a circus show, performed on street, about juggling and acrobatics. A bold rope is used in unthought ways, and thanks to that rope and with the audience’s help, Mr. Gera will conclude his show in a very touchy balance: after choosing eight volunteers from the audience, warmed them up playing pull the rope, the equilibrist will walk on the same rope, tensioned by those volunteers, juggling with things on fire! The show is a mix of juggling bravure with clubs, rings, balls. The climax will be the combo between equilibrium on a very large ball, throwing clubs while keeping a broom on the cin. This will be achieved only with audience collaboration, in a steady game of involving interaction.
