We like to invent news acts so if you've got an idea, or if you would like a specifically themed act for a special occasion, or a specific audience, contact us, we would be delighted to hear it!

La Pirate Rit

Photo de groupeA wandering pirates team gets their hands on a captive who possesses a mysterious treasure map. The tricky path to their loot will lead them to a strange encounter... The Pieds Jaloux company comes forth with a joyful and dynamic show, with juggling, acrobatics and backstabs!

Sometimes cooperatives, but mostly egoists, our pirates are keen on partying. Between comradeship, love and jealousy, seven artists offer you a colourful show, designed for an audience of all ages.

Les Pieds Jaloux: the eponym show!

Les pieds jaloux dans leur numéro de passing-acro

Two dancer acrobats start a romantic dance... and two jugglers decide to throw everything away!

A 10 minute show, full of energy, humour and clubs.

 

We presented this show at the open stage of the EJC in Millstreet (2014) and later at other conventions in France (2015).

 

A short version (8 minutes) with 6 artists has been shown in 2016 in Versailles.

 

 

 

 

Extract of eJuggle, the European Juggling Association journal, after our first representation in Millstreet:

“La Pieds Jaloux” is a 4 person troupe from France. Christophe Travert, Jerome Travert, Remi Sainct, and Denise Maurice are hobbyists but obviously invested a lot of time practicing to put together a great act. They started with a couple doing acro-dance that kept getting bothered by the 2 guys passing in classic Las Vegas style. The interruptions and interference soon turned to interactions as all 4 passed in a myriad of acro-passing patterns. They did and a double-feed between two pairs of shoulder-stands. Unfortunately they missed a few attempts at their finale trick of 3 person high shoulder-stand with all three juggling. [...]

In a surprise return to the stage, “La Pieds Jaloux” came back to try one more time with their finale trick and they stuck it their first try. Amazing!

Hats Passing

A two jugglers, six clubs and three hats act.

 

Two jugglers pass with six clubs. When one of them drops, the passing gets messed up. One at a time, the jugglers must find a new occupation and in a sudden surge of enthusiasm a hat is added to the clubs to create a full 6 objects passing again.

 

This short act has first been played in May 2012, then in August during the EJC in Lublin (Poland) and at various occasions after that.
