Rollercoaster

Cine-Teatro Garrett, Sala Principal (Main Room)

Synopsis

Ultra-modern pop-punk juggling! Surrounded by a huge inflatable blue structure and accompanied by electro beats composed of distorted rollercoaster sounds, Peden shares his cutting-edge tricks inspired by corkscrews, adrenalin, and high-tech seatbelts. The show features a 4-meter transparent tube making balls spiral around Wes’ body, contemporary spinning plate rituals, epic 3-ball disco juggling, and invisible seatbelts providing the safety to perform some of the most difficult juggling ever done on stage!
