The Berlin juggler DJuggledy has been touring the world for more than fifteen years – and has become a big success. On the road, he says, it’s all about one thing: performance.

The stage is set for DJuggledy: a big square, outdoors without height limit, summer weather and, of course, his diabolos, balls and juggling sticks – he doesn’t need much more to thrill his spectators. Dreadlocks, green-yellow jogging suit and brash “Berlin lip” are the hallmarks of this bundle of energy. With his tricks, he delights the audience, lets his diabolo, an hourglass-shaped juggling device, skillfully revolve around his body, throws it again and again into the air several meters high.
Manske has been touring Europe for over fifteen years with his juggling show “El Diabolo”. From May to October is peak season for a street artist like him. There are festivals, outdoor events and city festivals. He makes between fifty and a hundred appearances per season, most of them on the weekend.
