What people think about Nanda:


    

Utilikiltarian Newsletter: June 2007

“a NANDA show is truly something to behold”

“The crowd is simultaneously astounded and left mouth-agape at the physical dexterity and skill of the two guys, and laughing their asses off at the unexpected slapstick comedy.”

“In todays world of hyper-specialization and everything classified into its own micro-sized pigeonhole, is it refreshing to see these four guys perform. Their mishmash of acrobatics, juggling, martial arts, slapstick comedy, vaudeville, and pure goofball energy make a NANDA show unclassifiable… and illustrates why it is so much fun!”

“There is not another act I know of that do what they do”

 

     

"The Nanda boys do things I always wanted the Karamozovs to do, but couldn’t hire the talent.  They’re like our children-in-art, picking up where we left off.  Watching them, I feel like I’m the first stage of a multi-stage rocket, watching Nanda take off from my shoulders and head for the outer reaches of the solar system.  Go, Nanda! Banzai!"

-Howard Patterson, former Flying Karamozov Brother (“Ivan Karamozov”)

"Up at 4 :38 AM using my zen master skills to remove two mosquitoes from my room. They had woken me several times.  The Buddhist in me caught one in a small box and took it outside; the Nanda in me obliterated the other with a slo-mo sideways chop and now here you are.  Everything is connected. There are noodles in the Universe."

-Mark Ettinger

The Vigilance 2004

“George Rezendes played out a history lesson of the roots of American Jazz guitar, and the boys of Nanda showed the crowd (and the Karamazovs) what the future of juggling looks like. With the unmistakably new sounds of DJ Shadow and others thumping from the speakers, these three young men strutted, juggled and flipped their way through a routine that had the crowd laughing, holding their breath and cheering in turns.”
