Rollercoaster is a one-hour solo show created by Wes Peden, which combines ultra-modern, pop-punk juggling to talk about how to find a balance between freedom and safety.  

Surrounded by huge inflatable blue structures and accompanied by electronic tunes composed from distorted rollercoaster sounds, Peden carries out original tricks inspired by rollercoasters and their high-tech seatbelts. A spinning plate ceremony becomes a celebration of the great rides of the past; an epic 3 disco ball juggling evokes the evolution of rollercoasters; a 4-meter transparent tube turns into a path around Wes’ body to make balls flow through loops, helixes, and corkscrews. Rollercoaster twists theatrical rules to create a safe space to perform some of the most difficult and unique juggling ever done on stage.
