One foot planted in the Circus World and the other walking the Gypsy Trail - this is The Wanderlust Circus; hosted by Mr. Creature, an abstract adventurist on a pilgrimage through the jungles of today's performance art culture. From its roots in San Francisco to its current home in Portland and beyond, The Wanderlust Circus features cutting-edge talent from the farthest reaches of the I-5 Corridor, a multitude of performers drawn together by the call of the open road. Step onto that road with us for a night and enjoy our display of spectacular human ability with:



The Juggling Jollies

They love to teach people to juggle and inspire creativity through innovative performances.

Kazum
Prepare to have your spirits lifted to new heights by Portland's premiere acrobatic dance troupe. Kazum has been cleverly combining acrobalance, adagio and cheer-leading stunts to create high-flying, jaw-dropping spectacles since 2005. Kazum has collaborated with many of the most beloved groups in Portland's dynamic culture including Heroes & Villains, Trashcan Joe, Sweet Juice and The March 4th Marching Band. This fearless four-tet has been seen brandishing their high energy flair at such places as Portland's Earth Day Festival, The Oregon Country Fair, The Alberta Street Fair, Pickathon, Pizzazz: The Mercury Talent Show, Batty's Hippodrome and more.

Brittany Walsh
Today's Annie Oakley of inverted archery! Brittany's dexterity in hand balancing is the artistic result of thirteen years of competitive gymnastics. She has been studying hand balancing for nearly three years now, and has acquired quite the appetite for performance and circus arts. Brittany is currently a member of Do Jump! Extremely Physical Theatre, and has been seen performing with the novelty ninja rock band, Fist of Dishonor. She has made appearances at the Oregon Country Fair, various benefit shows and more.



The Gr8 Devinio
Devin Holt began his juggling career on the streets of St. Louis, Missouri in the mid 90's. Eventually he made his way to the famed San Francisco School of Circus Arts where he trained in Chinese Acrobatics with Master Trainer Lu Yi. However, when performance time came he was drawn back to his original arts of juggling and dancing and he hasn't stopped since! The Gr8 Devinio has danced and juggled on the streets from SF, to Melbourne, to London and back. He has performed in The American Circus Festival, the SF Supperclub, and with the New Pickle Circus.



Vanessa Vortex
Raised in New York City by Broadway superstars, Vanessa was trained in dance, music and theater as a child. After a brief early adulthood rebellion where she studied science, Vanessa picked up a hula hoop in 2004 and launched her true passion for circus arts. Under the guise of "Agent Vortex," Vanessa dances fly-girl style as part of Portland Oregon's original all-female, mini-bike dance team, The Sprockettes.

Noah Mickens
A man of many skins and a 10-year veteran of the underground circus rennaissance, Noah Mickens doffs his trademark top hat to join Wanderlust Circus in the role of Comic Foil. Speechless troubadour clown Dewhurst serves as reluctant stagehand and would-be star of the show, leading a mischievous mob of musical madcaps intent on derailing the circus train and riding off with the applause. Other suits in the Mickens wardrobe include those of ringmaster (Batty's Hippodrome, 999 Eyes, Cicuri Curajul), impressario (Societas Insomnia, 2Gyrlz, Gekikai), percussionist (Nequaquam Vacuum, Steve MacKay Ensemble, Soriah), nightclub booker (Someday Lounge, Rotture, Branx), butoh dancer (P.A.N.), and freelance M.C. (Bite Of Oregon, Drunk Puppet Night). He is not one to be trifled with.
