Performers

From the largest theatres to the tiniest zoom screens, since 2008 Travis's shows have been winning awards and critical acclaim across Canada. Known for his joyous wit and deft sleight-of-hand, he also creates magic for other magicians (some of which has appeared on America’s Got Talent), and was a magic producer on YTV's Tricked.

Yuki the Juggler, from Cause & Effect Circus, is a Japanese Canadian entertainer based in Vancouver, Canada. In his almost two decade career, he is best known for his interactive juggling acts, collaboration shows, and freestyle dance fusion. Yuki’s achievements not only include 1st place prizes/awards but connecting the local community of misfits by producing events, serving on the board of organisations and sending students to circus school. He shows up at festivities, big and small around the globe. Juggling is his way to connect and communicate with the world.

STORIES ON WHEELS is an original street theatre storytelling act for the whole family. Tales are brought to life by a high-energy comic performer, using beautifully illustrated picture cards displayed in a magnificent miniature wooden stage attached to the back of a unique bicycle. Inspired by a traditional Japanese travelling storytelling show popular from the 1920s through the 1950s called Kamishibai (literally paper theatre), the show combines the best of oral storytelling and narrative painting. Featuring gorgeous illustrations by local artists, as well as traditional picture cards from Japan, several short stories are told with music, dramatic action, and audience interaction. As well, the audience gets to hear an amusing and informative history of the art form. You’ve never been told a story this way, before!
