The Gentlemad

CIRCUS THEATRE
Mica Paprika

May 30th I Trilho I 5.30 pm
May  31st I Chainça I 5.30 pm

Duration: 55 mins; G.A.

From the golden age of Vaudeville comes this unique and talented gentleman, who combines juggling and balancing acts with precision, great elegance and a touch of humour. The show captivates any audience, anywhere.


 


Mica Paprika trained at Chapitô (2007–2010) and has performed internationally, from Latin America to the Middle East, Europe and Africa. In 2014, he was named the best Portuguese juggler at the 10th Portuguese Juggling Festival.
Since 2019, he has been collaborating with Krystall Palast Varieté in Leipzig.
In 2021, based in Portalegre, he developed the Portagem Cultural project, where he created Pagannus and the extreme circus solo act Biohazard.
His work is distinguished by a refined technical style inspired by Vaudeville, blending humour, risk and elegance with balancing acts, object manipulation, knife and axe throwing, chainsaw manipulation and fakir techniques.
