I have worked various cruise lines as a juggler and physical comedian in various capacities. As I re-visit my magical material, I realize I have many, many minutes of manipulation. Standard act length for a juggler or circus act tends to be eight minutes.
In terms of commercial bookability (that may be a word...) what is a good length for a stage manipulation act? Thanks in advance, Brian |

Almost the same.. 8-12 minutes.

My experience is the 7 min range is the desired component. If you can go modular by adding segments: 7-14-21-27, etc then all the better for an expanded time on a variety show.
