Spanning a breathtaking spectrum of themes, characters, performers, emotions, spectacles, stagecraft, storytelling threads and dreamscapes, The Invisible Circus have produced shows everywhere from Regency theatres and Circus Big Tops to old Fire Stations and industrial facilities.
Based in the UK since 2002, the company’s ethos lies in its roots as a street performance troupe. Having spent the 1990s exploring Europe’s rich performance culture and embracing a rich tapestry of traditions, The Invisible Circus has grown up in arts festivals, street performances, carnivals and independent creation spaces.
This community emphasis has remained at the heart of the company. Drawing together a diverse range of artists, performers, actors, directors, dancers, film makers, choreographers, musicians, makers and technicians, the company thrives on dynamic creative energy.
As Creative Director and founding Member of The Invisible Circus back in 1993 as a street performance troupe, my role switches between directing / performing and seeking new projects and opportunities for the company.
