The Trick Brothers ensemble is extraordinary for its constant inventiveness in connecting juggling techniques (of top European quality) and theatrical situations. Moreover, it is completely non-violent and very attractive to the audience. In their projects, they actively include the audience in the performance, which creates an authentic participatory spectator experience, while at other times the central pair of creators collaborates with other personalities of the Czech new circus scene and creates extraordinary synthetic productions.

The Trick Brothers performancee have already been seen by tens of thousands of people in the Czech Republic, France, Belgium, Sweden, Latvia, Slovenia, Israel, Ukraine, Italy, Poland, Slovakia and Taiwan, and last but not least in China at the EXPO 2010 World Exhibition in Shanghai and at the Formula 1 races in Bahrain.
