Meta – Gandini Juggling @ Jacksons Lane
Nov 21 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
The vertigo of structure, the infectiousness of the shocking. 
A show about making shows. A reflection on entertainment. In the 90’s the Gandinis made a series of experimental pieces with Choreographer Gill Clarkethat were performed at Jacksons Lane. For this commission they revisit those pieces with a show which is about itself, an elliptical reflexion on their journey through entertainment.
There will be complex juggling, text, ballet dancing, hammers, nudity, tables and a comedy sketch.
Gandini are bursting with concepts and commentary about form, style and substance. They are excited about this dissection of things, about dwelling deeper into the anatomy of a show.
Back at Jacksons Lane as part of the 40th birthday celebrations, this piece seesGandini simultaneously looking back to the past, forward to the future, and trying to explain how to get from one to the other.
With 6 jugglers and 3 dancers.
There will be a Gala performance of meta on Wed 25 Nov. CLICK HERE for more information.
