Three world-class jugglers reveal what you don’t usually get to see: the failure that lies behind success. In a series of choreographed routines featuring mesmerizing moves, their mistakes are brought to the forefront. The juggling balls become powerful metaphors for how we handle pressure, missteps, and the gaze of others. With playful timing, precise movements, and humor, Droplines is an intimate and unexpected celebration of imperfection and an ode to the fallible human being. “Try again. Fail again. Fail better”—Samuel Beckett.
