Gandini Juggling: Smashed

Presented by Canterbury Festival
7.30pm Monday 20th & Tuesday 21st October 2025

You are cordially invited to a tea party that you will never forget…

Traditional juggling meets contemporary circus alongside 100 apples, a big box of china cups and saucers, and a troupe of masterful performers in this funny, inventive and characterful show.

Smashed takes a witty look at forbidden fruit and the fraying relationship between seven men and two women, set against a soundtrack featuring popular songs ranging from Tammy Wynette to Music Hall and Bach.

‘Glorious. When it comes to juggling, the Gandini’s pip everyone else’ ★★★★ (The Guardian)
