World record-holding juggler and former Gandini Juggling associate artist Wes Peden will bring his acclaimed pop‑punk juggling extravaganza Rollercoaster to the South East this spring.
The production tours seven small to mid‑scale venues with support from house southeast theatre network, offering local audiences a high‑octane theatrical experience for all ages.
Set within a world of towering inflatable blue structures and accompanied by electro beats composed from distorted rollercoaster sounds, the show promises a sensory feast.
Peden performs cutting‑edge tricks inside a four‑metre transparent tube, creating a whirlwind of spiralling balls as he pushes the boundaries of contemporary juggling.
The show also features contemporary spinning plate rituals and 3‑ball disco routines showcasing Peden’s technical precision and distinctive creativity.
Wes Peden said, I’m really excited to be taking Rollercoaster to new venues in the South East of England this spring. I’ve designed this show to give audiences all the thrills and spills of a rollercoaster through virtuosic skills, high-speed sections and weightless moments full of suspense. I want people to come out of my show thinking: “I’ve never seen anything like that…I didn’t know juggling could be like that.”
house southeast theatre network continues its commitment to bringing ambitious touring work to communities across the region, widening access to contemporary theatre.
Senior Producer for house, Harriet Bolwell, said, I can’t wait for South East audiences to get to share in the awe-inspiring work of Wes Peden – this is an international production with the ultimate wow-factor, for all ages. Wes is one of world’s most exciting juggling talents to date and it’s incredible to be bringing his work to so many communities across our network of venues. This show has already been all over the world, and we couldn’t be happier giving it several more homes right here the South East. If you’ve not seen a juggling show, then this is the show for you, your friends and family – a great night out and absolutely like nothing you’ll have ever seen before.
