Who is Luke Burrage?
Hello,
I'm a recently rejoined member of performers.net. I used to post here back in the days when it was part of the Jim Show website. I've decided to catch up with it again because I recently quit my job and my current plan is to do a round the world trip, juggling for food and money along the way.
I hope to leave the second week in October, hit Sydney for New Years and end in New York in June/July next year and win the IJA juggling competitions. Then get back home in time for the EJC.
I'm writing a new street show because I'm sick of doing the same old stuff. The idea is to do two sets of juggling tricks. The main bulk of the show would be 3 standard "street" tricks like, high rola bola with 4 clubs or blinfolded knife juggling, plus maybe some big tennis ball tricks or diabolo or some original stuff. Then directly after each of these tricks I'll do a feat of pure juggling skill like 9 balls or 6 clubs, or 5 club backcrosses... these will be over very quickly and without much build up.
The hat line is based on having two hats and getting the audience to vote which kind of trick they like best with their money. I know the street tricks will win over the technical every time but as far as I know it's something different, and that's all I'm looking for right now.
Um... yeah... so I've not really told you who I am. I'm called Luke Burrage and I juggle a bit.
Catch you later,
Luke
