Greg Kennedy-Innovative Juggler-Juggling Show

In an effort to redefine people's preconceptions about juggling, Greg Kennedy fuses logic and creativity to synthesize new forms of juggling manipulation. In the early 1990's, Greg spent several years working as a professional engineer, in addition to his juggling career. His fascination with the geometry and physics of object manipulation lead him to ground-breaking work with original apparatus, expanding the realm of juggling. "He is a visionary who can see the possibilities in props and movement that are obscure to the masses," writes Bill Giduz, Jugglers World magazine.

Greg presently balances his performing career with a pursuit of juggling innovation, experimenting with new shapes and surfaces as well as traditional skills.

Greg's comedy resort show is a combination of high-energy juggling, clean comedy, and unique performance pieces. For 45 minutes from beginning to end it amazes audiences everywhere, mixing impressive feats, rapid-paced wit, and the pure beauty of motion.

"Spherus" is a non-verbal production show designed for theatrical venues. It features the technical precision of International Juggling Champion Greg Kennedy, complemented by Jennifer Dally & Jill Maio. The trio fills the stage with mesmerizing imagery, astounding your audience.

"Kinetics" is an educational show based on physics for students of all ages. It illustrates the principles of motion, light, energy and gravity (of course).

For corporate events and revue shows, Greg offers shorter segments, which can include pieces from his main show and/or his other original routines. He can work with the producers to select the best combinations or even custom-design a performance for a particular event.
