Janoah Bailin’s delightful meSSeS features precarious unicycling, shimmering puppetry, jaw-dropping juggling, and mesmerizing motions. Janoah the Jester tosses together a tale of learning and labor, emerging ecstatically from a haphazard pile of props. Part performance, part workshop, entirely entertaining – YOU learn to juggle while watching this (optionally interactive) all-ages experience. In between acts, Janoah engagingly guides the audience through the essentials: throwing, catching, and messy-ing up!
This 60-minute family-friendly solo circus-theater performance was the winner of “Spirit of the Fringe” at the 2022 Elgin Fringe Festival.
