Poi – the spinning top – a toy on the verge of extinction. Prepare to be mesmerised by the story of a man trapped by the gyroscopic effect of his spinning top.
Magical and historical, merging circus arts with the roots of Mediterranean culture, this show will amaze young and old alike.
Spinning top world champion and performer Guillem Vizcaíno creates the different spinning tops you will see – large and small, narrow and wide. His exploration of different types of wood, shapes and support points have led him to create one that weighs 45kg which he throws with a rope more than 15 metres long!
With a history of more than six thousand years, this show brings the ancient toy into the twenty first century, for everyone to enjoy.
