Up Down Go

Up, Down, Go is a documentary on the sport, art and history of juggling. The common perception of juggling is the street and circus performing styles; eating the apple, juggling chainsaws, et al. However, Up, Down, Go hopes to show you that there is much, much more to juggling. It is a look at the philosophical differences between the two main views on juggling;

Some say it is a sport. It is an acrobatic array of skills based on years of training.

Others say juggling is an art. It is a unique experience between the juggler and his or her audience, the same way a painter expresses on a canvass.

Up, Down, Go explores this craft -as well as the colorful people who passionately perform- in a journey led by producer and amateur juggler Nico Alfonso to jugglers’ streets, conventions, competitions and homes. Join Nico as he ventures his way across the country in search of the answer to the question, “What is juggling?”
