An overwhelming show that combines circus techniques and rhythm with surprising harmony: this is "The Juggling Drummer". The drumsticks fly through the air, performing spectacular tricks without ever breaking the beat, while the audience is drawn into an interactive game of beats and smiles. Gaku is a Japanese artist and musician who has combined his two passions since childhood. After training in Australia, he made his debut in Sydney as a street performer and has performed all over the world. Today, he is a certified “Heaven Artist” of the city of Tokyo.
At 2 p.m. near the Ciampac cable car mountain station, at 2,160 metres above sea level. The Panorama Pass and Dolomiti Supersummer passes are valid for the cable car. Free show for adults and children of all ages. Duration: approximately 40 minutes. In case of bad weather, the show will be cancelled.
"The Juggling Drummer" is one of the shows of the "Circen Dolomites Festival". For a whole week, from 25 July to 3 August, the Val di Fassa hosts established street artists and talented international jugglers. Squares, museums, but also high-altitude locations, turn into exceptional stages for astonishing performances, both in ability and creativity. The festival is organised by Fassa’s group of jugglers "Circensema", founded in 2017 in partnership with the local association "Inout", which for some years has been practising the circus art and also training, together with professionals, some teenagers that perform in a few shows throughout the year, juxtaposing juggling and theatre.
