Jay Gilligan on Cirkuspodden

Jay Gilligan has performed in 38 different countries, touring solo work and collaborating with companies such as Spiegelworld, The Gandini Juggling Project, Cie Jérôme Thomas, Les 7 doigts de la main, Cirkus Cirkör, Cie Ea Eo, and Cirque du Soleil. He has taught juggling at every major circus school in the world, including at the Stockholm University of the Arts for the past 25 years.

He has published a book about contemporary juggling titled "5 Catches," and co-hosts a podcast called "Object Episodes" which is published by the International Jugglers Association. His most recent work is the one-man Off-Broadway show in New York City titled "REFLEX," which is his magnum opus. The show is an homage to a lifetime of looking at juggling as art, and weaves the history of juggling together with stories about the space program and space travel.

Jay also runs his own contemporary circus company in Stockholm, called Kapsel which tours alongside his German collaborative company named Shaking the Sky.
