"It is the story of a rural man trapped since childhood by the gyroscopic effect of his spinning top. A journey of entanglements and twists that transports us to play, one of the most important states of life."

The main objective of this contemporary show is to fuse circus arts with the popular game of spinning tops and the roots of Mediterranean culture.

The spinning top is a magical and ancient toy with hypnotic spins that have a history spanning over six thousand years. This toy, on the verge of extinction, is capable of stopping time, since simply watching it spin allows us to disconnect from the frenetic pace of our daily lives.

POI responds to a physical search for juggling and object manipulation, but also to an artisanal investigation with respect to the construction of the scenery and spinning tops that Guillem Vizcaíno himself has designed and built.

This exploration of different types of wood, shapes and support points has allowed him to create personal and special spinning tops, such as one of the largest spinning tops in the world weighing 45 kg, which he throws himself with a rope of more than 15 meters.

Genre: Circus. Style: Juggling. Duration: 50 min.

Show included in the programming of the Scenic Circuits of Castilla y León.
