RODRIGO MÖLLER (EL CHOLO)

Country: Perú

Rodrigo started teaching juggling workshops in 2000, while performing shows in cultural centres and poor neighbourhoods in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. At the some time he traveled to different South American countries exchanging knowledge with different cultures. Today Rodrigo is part of the company Latin Duo and the collective Payasos Autoconvocados that perform shows in a variety of different marginal places. He understands how to the use theatre, circus and music as transformational tools to produce art in the most vulnerable sectors of society. He effectively uses games with kids and teenagers in his workshops to transform their economical and social reality. This last year he created a project for at risk young people in the Amazon region of Brasil where no circus had ever performed before.
