You Too Can Tutu
Colourful pointe shoes & hyper-coloured balls for 5-11 years old
Outdoor
Building on the success of their 2015 juggling-meets-ballet performance 4x4: Ephemeral Architectures, Gandini Juggling brings this captivating fusion of grace and playful precision to a whole new audience.
This time, with a mischievous twist—a witty take on classic ballet storytelling, following two ambitious characters determined to create the world’s first juggling ballet.
Bursting with celebratory energy and slapstick fun, You Too Can Tutu comes to life in a vibrant Bauhaus-inspired palette. Colourful pointe shoes and hyper-coloured balls dance together, forming mesmerising patterns and shapes in a joyful spectacle of movement and rhythm.
