Mission Statement
Through my art, I advocate for spending your days the way you choose—and in the way you'll best grow.  I want to help in some small way, through understanding, inspiration, curiosity, or just entertainment. Great performances share thoughts and feelings that can't be put into words, connecting the artist and members of the audience and finding ways to express our shared experiences.
Ed's Background
As a young child, I began rock climbing with my neighbors. I just loved the physical challenge and being at high heights. When I was 15 I found circus videos online and was determined to learn aerials in Philadelphia. I began training in quite a variety of aerials as well as some partner acrobatics. Later, when I turned 18 I got into Circadium where I trained aerials, partner acrobatics, ground acrobatics, theater, and dance much more seriously. I began doing 5 days a week 8+ hours a day.
Currently at age 25 I perform my solo show FramEd Circus, coach aerials and juggling, and perform corporate/private events all around the USA.
I've performed over 200 shows of FramEd Circus. I regularly coach in Pennsylvania, Kansas, and Florida. And, I perform with a multitude of gig companies.
Artist's Statement
I am a community of thoughts. I think within body and mind. I contemplate in and around and between every moment. The synchronicity of the subconscious makes my heart sing. I live within each emotional moment. The feel of shapes in my body free my mind from its containment. Every repetition of a performance brings me to a new, deeper level of body connection and opens up some internal confusion. And that confusion brings every emotion and earthly experience in its tow. I’ve always been influenced by this quote that was on the wall of my high school, “Don’t worry, confusion is just ignorance leaving the mind.” In its ideal form, my art generates this confusion and connection to, hopefully, help us all grow.
