“Bird of Paradise is an aerialist and burlesque performer who loves to shake her feathers in all things circus. Over the past decade, she has performed dozens of acts including silks, sling, lyra, pole, straps, fans, heels, and chair dance. She grew up in Alaska but currently lives in Idaho, where she recently graduated with a master’s degree studying birds. Passionate about teaching, she has trained over 100 aerialists in both skills and performance techniques. She brought her circus and teaching experience to the University of Idaho, where she created a student-led aerial performance troupe. Once a Cheeky, always a Cheeky! Bird of Paradise is excited to be back on stage where she first began her burlesque journey — and to take flight once more.”
