Inside Juggling

feat Liza van Brakel

A show like a tracking shot: fast-paced, funny and virtuoso. A performer juggles between choreography, stage and her own image in search of order in the chaos of images. Entranced by her own diversity, she finds stability in disbalance and calm in risk.

30 years in the world, 20 of them juggling, 10 on stage. At home everywhere, always new encounters; audience and performer as a temporary community, routine follows ritual - the only things that remain the same are the personal objects that accompany her on her journey, travelling from bags to rooms and back again.

Together with Hippana.Maleta, Liza van Brakel dares to change perspective: she takes the audience into the intimate space of the solo and humorously thematises the price and poetry of restless adventurousness and contradictory dreams. Using a camera, object manipulation and live projection, she twists her and our perceptions of reality.

Hippana.maleta are Jonas Schiffauer (DE) and Alex Allison (IE). The company has been researching the language of juggling and object manipulation to explore aspects of the human condition since 2018. Hippana.Maleta are touring Europe with their productions. The current production is the first collaboration with the Dutch juggler Liza van Brakel.
