The Great Dave at Ukiyo Spiegeltent

The Great Dave performs a show that is about so much more than just juggling. Maybe it is the ease with which he juggles that has us forget he is defying gravity, casually flicking 3, 4, then 5 juggling clubs from hand to hand whilst engaging the audience in a hilarious banter.

Very few performers are happy to put the destiny of the show into the hands of the audience, but with ultimate humility, The Great Dave offers the audience the chance to suggest different juggling styles—leaving him to improvise his way out of the seemingly impossible suggestions.

Finally, he ends up on a 2-metre-high unicycle juggling high above the audience’s head, while making the quintessential English cup of tea—with the help of the audience, of course. I guess that’s why they call him the Great Dave!?
