"We are an eclectic collective of the circus perspective.
A world’s wonder of magical inspiration,
Education, facilitation, and circus creation.
Dancing, singing and flying abounds,
Exploring the truth of our feet on the ground,
Dwelling in the sky, while dreaming abounds."
Welcome to the Elvolutionaries home page! We are a Canadian circus troupe, based in British Columbia. Our passion in the circus arts focus on aerial silks acrobatics, stiltwalking, juggling, fire spinning, contact dance, theatrical costume design, and gypsy caravan markets. We book aerial silk performances for special events, festivals, private and public functions, as well as teach aerial silks classes. See our contact and booking page to contact us.
Winter months in Canada and Hawaii have given us the opportunity continue to enrich local communities by offering classes in dance and aerial silks, as well as collaborate with the Hiccup Circus.Summer festival and event tours allow us to share our magical moving mircocosm of circus fun, with our aerial silks performances as our main show. We, Freyja Skye and Marley Saffire Skye have been performing as the Elvolutionaries in the Western United States and Canada since we met more than three years ago. This last year has brought a new performer to collaborate with us, our young daughter Shaeanna Skye.
In some of our shows we have collaborated with a number of musicians, such as The Dharmas (check them out at www.dharmas.ca), Nathan Debridge, Vie Martineau, and Noah, the third member of our troupe. Noah is currently traveling in the United States in true bard fashion, enchanting audiences with his banjo, self made native flutes, puppets, and storytale songs. We also do live improv aerial dance performances with musicans at festivals. In the upcoming years we would like to facilitate circus (aerial silks, acrobatics, juggling, spinning, clowning, puppetmaking, recycled material instrument making) playshops in the kids areas at festivals.
We tour on a 40 foot purple bus named Iris, powered by recycled waste vegetable oil. The pop-up aerial rig on the back of the bus makes rigging easy for outdoor venues and performances. In respect for the earth and its inhabitants, we are minimizing our carbon footprint using low pollution technologies, and reduced consumption. We are maximizing our creative footprint by providing communities with breathtaking aerial acrobatic performances, an amazing circus arts bus and inspired, self made, bamboo, organic cotton, hemp and wool costumes and clothing.
