Bamboozled: Mr Spin. Nigel Martin

"Mr. Spin's performances were nothing short of phenomenal. Mr. Spins charm, super high skill juggling and quick fire off the wall comedy caused a sensation creating a record for the largest audience at a single show."
"Mr. Spin is without a doubt one of Australia's best jugglers."
Brendan Coleman - Fremantle Street Arts Festival Director

With a ferocious energy & endearing, charismatic wit, Mr. Spin is a true comic genius and one of Australia's finest jugglers. Mr Spin is a multi-awarding winning performer who has been entertaining large and enthusiastic audiences worldwide.

THE MR SPIN SHOW

The show is a highly skilled, comic vaudevillian style street/circus act. Mr. Spin is a loveable, charismatic character that is a favourite with all audiences. He performs a beautiful three-ball juggle, diabolo, Chinese devil-sticking with base bats, one ball manipulation and an eight ball juggle, mixed with mad capped antics and a incredible sense of fun, not to mention a few hat tricks thrown in! This all culminates into him jumping on to crazy zigzag unicycle of his own design, where he juggles three baseball bats while balancing a glass of water on his head!

The Mr. Spin show can be adapted for either the stage or the street and depending on your requirements the show can run from 20 to 45 minutes.

"The Montrealers & I were amazed with his work; he has excellent pacing, has great charisma and has a good interaction with the public. He is a high quality performer and a total professional."
Andre Perusse, Just for Laughs, Artistic Director

"No festival is complete without the amazing Mr Spin"
Dom Ferry, Festival Director
