Does anyone out there juggle? Objects, that is, not tasks or time?
One of my characters in my fantasy WIP is a minstrel and an excellent juggler (she's also an accomplished pickpocket, but we won't go there ). I'm not very familiar with juggling, so I'm looking for suggestions of what sort of props she might use, and what she could do for a specialty "wow-the-crowd" act. She usually performs outside in the marketplace or on a street corner.
When juggling different types of objects at the same time, how do you choose which objects? Objects which are about the same size or weight? Say an apple, an orange, a tea cup, a <fill in the blank>???
What's the limit for the number of objects? I usually see people juggling three things at a time.
Thanks in advance!
