Special Guests
Our special guests for the 2009 Portland Juggling Festival have a great range of juggling and artistic talents.
Sean Blue will be headlining the Extravaganza, showcasing his unique blend of technical juggling and object manipulation with artistry and dance. He was performed around the world, and in 2007 won the Award for Innovation from the International Jugglers' Association.
Actor, juggler, and clown Michael O'Neill will be the emcee for the Extravaganza. Michael has performed as a Ringling Brothers clown, created the Nomadic Theatre Company, and performed around the world with his Antic Arts Show and with Clowns without Borders.
Jeremiah Johnston and the Poetic Motion Machine will be joining us with their group juggling and passing prowess. They recently won the Bronze medal at the International Jugglers' Association convention, and will be performing at the Extravaganza and teaching workshops on club traps and scissor theory.
