InterACTive Theater is designed specifically for celebrations, festivals, street fairs and first nights. During these events, Jef weaves through the crowd sharing his wacky brand of roving artistry which includes mime, juggling, mask work and variety arts. Festival attendees become willing participants, interacting with Jef by creating faces for his masks, juggling with him, posing for photos with his masterpiece camera and even playing a game of human-sized ring toss with one another. His brand street performing is relaxed and approachable. It appeals to the imagination and playfulness inherent in everyone. It creates camaraderie amongst audience members, invites the comfortable participation of the onlookers, and adds a bit of old school street theater spice to any event.
As well as roving a festival site, he enjoys appearing onstage in the family or children’s area of a festival. All of his roving work translates wonderfully to short (30 minute) stage sets which require minimal set up and fit perfectly into a festival format.Opening Act
Because of his appeal to audience members of all ages, he routinely performs as an opening act or entr’acte either onstage as a curtain raiser, or in front of the stage while a changeover occurs on the stage itself.
