Editing Juggling (section)

==Venues==

===Circus===
Jugglers commonly feature in circuses, with many performers having enjoyed a star billing. Circus jugglers come from many countries and include those from [[Russia]] and other Eastern European countries, China, Latin America and other European countries. Some of the greatest jugglers from the past 50 years are from Eastern Europe, including [[Sergej Ignatov]], [[Andrii Kolesnikov]], [[Evgenij Biljauer]], and [[Gregory Popovich]].

===Variety theatres===
Variety theatres have a long history of including juggling acts on their billing. Vaudeville in the USA and Music halls in the UK regularly featured jugglers during the heyday of variety theatre in the first half of 20th century. Variety theatre has declined in popularity but is still present in many European countries, particularly Germany. Television talent shows have introduced juggling acts to a wider audience with the newest examples being Britain's Got Talent and America's Got Talent.

===Casinos===
In North America jugglers have often performed in [[casino]]s, in places like Las Vegas. [[Germany]] and the United States have produced some of the greatest jugglers from the past 50 years, most notably [[Francis Brunn]] from Germany and [[Anthony Gatto]] from the United States.

===Festivals and fairs===
There is a wide variety of festivals and fairs where juggling acts are sometimes booked to perform. Music, food and arts festivals have all booked professional performers. The festivals can range from very large scale events such as [[Glastonbury Festival]] to small town or village fairs. The acts may differ from year to year or a one-act may become a regular feature at these yearly events.

===Historically themed events===
Renaissance fairs in North America and medieval fairs in Europe often book professional jugglers. Other historically themed events such as Victorian, maritime, and large-scale festivals of history such as the one organised by [[English Heritage]] regularly employ juggling acts as part of the event.

===Street performance===

In many countries such as the UK, USA, Australia, Spain, France jugglers perform on the street ([[busking]]). Street juggling acts usually perform what is known as a circle show and collect money at the end of the performance in a hat or [[bottle]]. Most street jugglers perform comedy juggling acts. Well known locations for this kind of street performance include Covent Garden in London, Faneuil Hall in Boston, Outside the Pump Rooms in Bath, Prince's Street in Edinburgh, outside the Pompidou Centre in Paris, Circular Quay in Sydney, and Pearl Street in Boulder.

===Space===
Juggling has been performed in space despite the fact that the micro-gravity environment of orbit deprives the juggled objects of the essential ability to fall. This was accomplished initially by [[Donald E. Williams|Don Williams]], as part of a Houston scientist's "Toys In Space" project, with apples and oranges.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Giduz|first1=Bill|title=The Joy of Zero-G Juggling|journal=Juggler's World|date=1985|volume=37-2|pages=4–6|url=http://dev.juggle.org/history/archives/jugmags/37-2/37-2,p4.htm}}</ref>

Two person juggling passing multiple objects between them was first accomplished in space by [[Greg Chamitoff]] and [[Richard Garriott]]<ref>{{cite web|last1=Chamitoff|first1=Greg|title=Greg Chamitoff's Journal|url=http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/expeditions/expedition17/journal_greg_chamitoff_6_prt.htm|website=Nasa.gov|access-date=18 January 2015|archive-date=5 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160805151213/http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/expeditions/expedition17/journal_greg_chamitoff_6_prt.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> while Garriott was visiting the [[International Space Station]] as a [[Spaceflight Participant]] in October 2008. Their juggling of objects while in orbit was featured in ''[[Apogee of Fear]]'', the first science fiction movie made in space by [[Richard Garriott|Garriott]] and 'Zero-G Magic', a magic show also recorded in space by [[Greg Chamitoff|Chamitoff]] and [[Richard Garriott|Garriott]] at that time.
