Two jugglers find themselves bound to treadmills and their rules, while a musician conducts them through a series of games and experiments. A lively circus show which celebrates juggling and running.
Running is itself an incredibly efficient means of human locomotion. Have you ever thought about the number of muscles needed to run, the number of neural pathways between the head and the legs used for each jump, what it means in terms of body coordination, for something that seems to happen automatically? Juggling is a comparable phenomenon.
Our desire to celebrate the evolution of walking and throwing in a human way whereas our culture is becoming more motionless than ever led us to create RUNNERS- a circus show which combines excellent juggling, amazing objects and incredible sounds. Let’s party and celebrate together!
Hippana.Maleta
The Hippana.Maleta company was founded in 2018 on the basis that juggling, object handling, and using your body can help build languages to explore aspects of the human condition. Alex Allison (IE), Jonas Schiffauer (DE) and Moisés Mas García (ES) share and develop a specific vision of circus, poetry and performance.
