“Seriously interesting and wryly amusing”
– The Guardian

“The combination of mesmerising manipulation and dry comedy left me wanting more”
– Circus Diaries

“...an absorbing and entertaining work achieved through a powerful combination of technical skill and performance chemistry”
– Resolution

Devastatingly slick and wonderfully thought-provoking, Gibbon fuses dance, physical theatre and juggling to explore the absurd and comedic connections between human behaviours.

Co-produced by Olivier Award-winning Gandini Juggling and breakout stars Chris Patfield and José Triguero, Gibbon is a surreal and charming feast of juggling choreography with a sense of humour and a hint of absurdity. The production captivates with a powerful combination of technical skill and performance chemistry.  Achieving success while masking failure, the narrative is formed when the action cuts between the creation and the execution of hypnotic patterns and juggling movement sequences.

Gibbon takes inspiration from the world of dance, innovating choreographically and conceptually, mixing different art forms with juggling and exploring ideas through movement and devised theatre to create a surreal and touching atmosphere. Patfield and Triguero capture the tension of gravity defiance, combining the inevitable speed of an object falling with the slow movement of intertwined arms and hands.

Poetic and comedic, Gibbon is a unique spectacle that invites you to marvel equally at the depth of thought and the proficiency of its performers.


Ages: 6 and above.
