Maddy’s Theatre Presents SpinS: a One-Person Circus Show

 

Maddy’s Theatre presents SpinS: a one-person circus show February 20-26th

 

A wildly dizzying whirl of juggling, magic and movement, puppetry, circus and socks…totally tangled together!

Meet Janoah Bailin, a pajama-clad unicyclist who sways on stage with a suitcase in tow. As he unpacks, he introduces the audience to a whimsical world of clothes-pin towers and erratic toothbrushes. SpinS is a one-person circus show that weaves circus, dance and puppetry into entertaining and mind-bending performances for all ages.

SpinS frames skill through physical challenge, fashioning hilarious precariousness that is joyful and open. Objects and audience swirl into chaotic creation in this solo circus, recounting the learning and laughter of an itinerant performer.

Performances run Sunday, February 20 through Saturday, February 26 in Maddy’s Theatre

$10 per ticket

Museum & Theatre Members receive 10% off

The performer is vaccinated and boosted and will be performing without wearing a mask.

About Janoah

Janoah anygoodjokes? Bailin learned to unicycle in the empty after-hours corridors of his middle school. He continued practicing with the Suspenders Juggling Troupe in Falmouth (MA), dropped countless objects in his backyard, then traveled New England for two seasons with the Circus Smirkus Big Top Tour, where he dropped slightly less often.

​Janoah graduated in 2014 from College of the Atlantic in Maine, where he grasped at and fumbled with performance-related studies: theater, movement, objects, puppets, film, literature, carnival, gender, etc.

In past summers Janoah has taught the precarious skills of letting things fall and picking them up at the Payomet Performing Arts Center in Truro (MA). He now instructs students near Portland (ME) how to juggle, perform and drop things playfully. He currently coaches and choreographs the Gym Dandies Children's Circus of Scarborough. He also helps organize programming for The Living Room Dance Collective in Portland.
