Stacy Clark

Performer
Aerialist/acrobat Stacy Clark is a former national level gymnast. Stacy first tried flying trapeze for fun on a hot summer's day. Ten years later she is co-founder of High Strung aerial dance and travels internationally, performing for audiences of all ages at festivals and special events. She has performed across Canada and in the US, Japan, Macedonia, England, Hong Kong and Fiji. Stacy specializes in trapeze (single and duo), bungees, acrobatics and stilt walking. Stacy's theatre and screen credits include aerial performances in “Variété” and “Shurum Burum Jazz Circus”, stunt performing in three Canadian Opera Company productions, the movie “Chicago”, TV show “Mutant X” and commercial and music video appearances. In the fall of 2006 she added puppetry to her repertoire, appearing in Green Fools’ “Crossing the Mediterranean.”

Instructor
Stacy teaches circus skills to kids and adults. For seven weeks each year she instructs youth-at-risk in northern communities and inner cities across Western Canada. 2007 marked her third year with CAMPP (Circus And Magic Partnership Program) in Winnipeg and Northern Manitoba, and she has taught circus camp in Dawson City, Calgary, Whitehorse and Lesotho, Africa.

Administrator
In her past life, Stacy worked for Hummingbird Centre for the Performing Arts, Bombardier Aerospace and Field Day, a marketing and advertising agency. She brings over eight years of marketing and communications experience to the front lines of both Green Fools Theatre and High Strung aerial dance. Stacy has an uncanny ability to spot spelling and grammatical errors in all forms of media, and when not obsessing over said errors, would be delighted to pitch our entertainment offerings!
