Armed with sleeves and a pair of hands, That Man springs into action with a case and a whistle, without a word or concern for his toes, he weaves his way with perfect balance, pin point precision, and help from the super human members of the audience, through a series of tight routines, extreme juggling, mesmerizing manipulation, and a huge spinning ball balanced 8m above his head.

Engaging, Versatile, and Wholesome.

Brought up in the orange fields of Norfolk, UK, Grant Goldie never knew much of the outside world, at age 19 he started working on 2 new hobbies, Juggling and Dentistry, and at the untrained age of 30 combined them into "That Man Show". Since the show was created it has taken him round the world and back again.

Quotes:

“... everything he touches springs to life, he's a juggler, but like none I've ever seen.”
“... I've watched the faces of the people he brings into his show, he makes them feel so special, they will never forget it.”
Organizer of Womad Festival, Madrid.
"Outstandingly strong work by Grant Goldie as the sinister manipulator, juggling visions through a set of glass balls."
The Stage re. internationally acclaimed "Sleep Show"
“Too many people were stopping to watch and causing a fire hazard. ”
Millenium Dome Steward explaining why show was stopped / cut short.
“(...) but they're just acrobats, what this guy does is amazing. ”
Galway Arts Festival
