We are a collective of eight jugglers of various nationalities and backgrounds. Rotational force, gravitational pull—the hula hoop brings us together in this show, where the circle links discourse to performance.
Is the hoop insignificant? A simple plastic tube? A playground toy? Welcome to the other side of the circle: our tool for work and expression, the object of our artistic research for years. A vehicle for our passion, the hoop is also our relationship to the body, to movement, to fragility, to balance. It is an object of circus and creation. With Hoop.x8, we will take the hula hoop where it has never been seen before. In this historically solo discipline, we want to open a dialogue. We will perform our eight individualities as a single group on stage, our apparatus as messengers of our intersecting, concentric spaces, in constant conversation. Alongside the show we can offer artistic workshop with the hola hoop in different formats:
