The RIT Spring Juggle-In, Saturday, April 6, 2019, is one of the longest running juggling festivals in North America. Jugglers from around the nation come to the Clark Gym on RIT campus from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. to join in the fun, with over 500 attendees expected. All are welcome to attend, whether you want to juggle or just watch. There will be activities for jugglers and spectators of all skill levels, including a free family show at 10:30 a.m. and free workshops and competitions throughout the day. In addition to great fun, this event also acts as a fundraiser for The Dystonia Medical Research Foundation, which will receive a portion of all profits.
The capstone event of the Juggle-In is always the Saturday night public show, located at Ingle Auditorium, in the Student Union on RIT Campus. Walking tiptoe on wine bottles, hoop choreography that intertwines two people, juggling 9 nine balls effortlessly, balancing stacks of glasses on a stick held by your teeth, and keeping a ball perfectly balanced on your head while walking and spinning around, these are just a few of the amazing things you'll see in the Gala show on Saturday night. Headline act and Master of Vaudeville Thom Wall is joined on stage by some of the best jugglers and hoop artists in the country. Thom Wall has performed as a solo act juggler for the acclaimed Cirque De Soleil show Totem, and he was won numerous awards and competitions. Thom is joined by multiple other award winning jugglers and manipulators for a show you won’t see anywhere else.
The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 7:10 p.m.
Tickets: Adult/General Public - $18 RIT Faculty/Staff/Alumni, Youth, and Seniors (65+) - $12.
