Two jugglers dropped in on WORT studios and paid Monday Eight o’Clock Buzz host Brian Standing a visit. Here to promote MadFest, a three-day celebration of juggling arts, they entertained listeners with a special radio juggling act! Watch the video to see how they did it in the studio right here!
Every year, in January, international jugglers bring flying things to Madison … not tundra swans or snowy owls, but balls, pins, and any anything else a human can throw in the air … in a stunning annual display. This weekend jugglers from around the globe will arrive for the Madison Juggling Fest, or Madfest.

The festival takes over various venues on Friday, Saturday and Sunday with a showcase performance at Madison’s Barrymore Theatre on Saturday, January 18th.
