HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Born in Montreal in 2019, Nacho con Salsa is the result of the friendship and artistic chemistry between Carlos Verdin and Miguel Jalaff.
Driven by a shared passion for contemporary circus, street shows and physical comedy, the two artists create a colorful world where juggling, clowning and stage play naturally meet.
Since its beginnings, the company has developed original creations blending technical performance, Latin American energy and audience interaction. Each show becomes a playground where the unexpected, laughter and virtuosity come alive.
Among their creations are offbeat, festive worlds, like that of two tennis players ready to do anything to win the final of the Grand World Tennis Championship. Between absurd rivalry, clownish situations and juggling feats, the artists turn every performance into a lively, funny and memorable experience.
Today, Nacho con Salsa continues its exploration of circus and comedy with the same goal: creating sincere, surprising and unforgettable moments.
THE DUO
A close-knit energy on stage
On stage as in life, Carlos and Miguel share a dynamic built on play, improvisation, and connection with the audience.
Their world blends physical comedy, juggling, movement, and spontaneous interaction to create shows accessible to all ages. Each performance becomes a living moment where the audience is part of the adventure.
Thanks to their natural chemistry and contagious energy, Nacho con Salsa turns every performance into a festive, human celebration.
