Dancers(All Styles)/Jugglers/Acrobats/Contortionists/Magicians/Aerialists/Sword Swallowers/Blockheads/Puppeteers
Anyone with circus/sideshow/carnival/vaudeville skills or talents! Be they traditional or unconventional!
Our newly formed group is actively recruiting performers to join our little horde. The backbone of our project thus far is a gifted and rambunctious circus band, which has been working on the music that will be the foundation of this whole endeavor.
Our goal is to form a scale-able performance troupe that can draw on an array of people depending on what kind of gig we have lined up. We’ll be doing everything from guerrilla outdoor gigs to music club shows to larger scale productions. As such, we are on a mission to find some people that really want to join us in realizing this dream. We’re always going to be open to (and will often need) people that only perform with us on a show-to-show basis, but ideally we’ll have a ‘core’ group of performers at every show, and then we’ll expand and contract as needed.
We have our first gig lined up for April, and more planned for this spring and summer, so things are really getting off the ground. However, we are still gestating, so in adding your talents to our crew, you’ll be an important part in contributing to what we hope will become a tremendous force of entertainment here in Boston.
If you're at all curious or interested, please send us some information about yourself and what you do, and let us know how you'd like to be involved.

Re: Performers needed for Circus Troupe!!! Greater Boston Area
Wed, February 28, 2007 - 12:12 PMhi there!
okay, so i don't live in Boston. I live in NYC. however, i would LOVE to be involved. Even if it means me taking the fung wah to Boston on weekends to get involved.
I've been a living statue for about 2 years now...but my main vice is performance style hula hooping. I've currently got a fancy pantsy LED hoop and am in the process of aquiring a fire one. I'd love to play and perform with you guys. I've got a background in bellydance and a hoop dance style of dorky joy and curvatious burlesque. I've been told that I when I hoop, i look like a cross between a schoolgirl and a lion tamer.
Oh, and I also make masks and puppets. I dont really have much experience in performing with them...but I do have experience in making them. (mostly out of paper mache).
And I'm taking a sideshow class at Coney Island over the summer. So after that, I'll be available to sword swallow, glass walk, fire breath, blockhead, etc...
I know the distance thing is kind of a big deal, but if i can be involved in any way, let me know!

Thu, March 1, 2007 - 7:12 PMIf you're interested, I'm from the Providence RI area (though I'm at school in Amherst MA) and I'm a living statue and a tribal fusion bellydancer. Photos of both on my profile. :)
