Gandini Juggling (United Kingdom)
After spending three decades watching and being inspired by Merce Cunningham’s work, the company is now taking the plunge: What would a juggling show choreographed by the renowned artist have looked like? Far from being a homage, Life could be both a love letter to the choreographer, rooted in his singular artistic universe, and an invitation to a new kind of performance, perhaps even a vector to a new world?
