Gibbon
is a surreal and enchanting feast of choreographed juggling, with a sense of humor and a touch of the absurd.

Succeeding while hiding failure is Gibbon ‘s starting point. The show is punctuated by the constant interruption of hypnotic juggling sequences, and by moments of playfulness, which build the show’s script. Captivating and entertaining, Gibbon combines technical skill with a wonderful sense of complicity on stage.

At
Gibbon
there’s a kind of confusion between reality and fiction, an unsettling spiral that gradually feeds on comic and disconcerting moments.

Patfield & Triguero

The company was founded by Spaniard Jose Triguero and Scot Chris Patfield.
They met while studying at the National Center for Contemporary Circus in London (NCCA).

Since 2012, they have worked regularly for the juggling company Gandini Juggling, performing in various shows.

In 2017, they decided to join forces to realize their own GIBBON project. Released in theaters and outdoors in 2018, Gibbon has toured various countries to date and was nominated for Best Show in the Dance category by the prestigious ‘Total Theater Award ‘ at the Edinburgh Festival in 2018.
