MEET THE CAST PT 5
@glamour_rat
Atom Jane is a former academic nerd turned circus nerd whose performance synthesizes traditional circus and modern approaches to create unexpected feats of fun. They have performed incredible acts of balance all across the country, from touring circus shows to theater productions.
What's one thing you learned about yourself during the pandemic? Turns out I like making and editing stupid, silly videos! Who knew?
MEET THE CAST Part 4.
@daviddrops
David Chervony is a juggler, circus creator, and the founder of Low Ceiling Circus. He has performed nationally with the Masters of Gravity, the Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai, Cirque Us, and locally with the Midnight Circus and the Actors Gymnasium, among others. When he isn't juggling, he is either playing a board game, running around with his dog, or thinking about juggling.
What's one thing you learned about yourself during the pandemic? Plants are actually pretty great.
MEET THE CAST Part 3
@mattriggen
A composer, educator and musician with a marked focus on politically-engaged work, Matt Riggen performs and composes with the intent to stimulate audiences towards justice--or, towards any deeper thought about the world they live in.
What's one thing you learned about yourself during the pandemic? I get a lot of pleasure from the work I do, even when I do it alone and just for me.
MEET THE CAST Part 2.
@faye_laverte
Kat is an award-winning performing artist based in Chicago, and a graduate of Iowa State University's performing arts program as well as the Actors Gymnasium's Professional Circus Training Program. Their work infuses storytelling, clown, dance, circus, and burlesque; and they have worked with The Lincoln Center, Lookingglass Theatre, Constellation Immersive, and Soho House, among others. You can also catch them performing at The Drifter and Untitled, and on the audio drama, Unwell: a Midwestern Gothic Mystery (named Best Podcast of 2020 by the BBC Audio Drama Awards).
What's one thing you learned about yourself during the pandemic? I thought I hated cooking because, in the before-times, I didn't have time for it. Now I know that I just really hate cooking.
MEET THE CAST! Part 1. @marty.feel.guut
Martin Gutfeldt (they/them) is a multidisciplinary performance artist originating from California. They have performed in Chicago as an actor, singer, dancer, and musician with diverse groups such as Heels Over Head, The West, Luna Nova Theater, Salonathon, and Midsommer Flight. Look for their roaring saxophone to be heard in performances both live and streamed all around the city.
What's one thing you learned about yourself during the pandemic?Unfortunately, it turns out I have absolutely no tolerance for Zoom performances.
Martin will blow you mind with their playing later this summer!
