Alex
Fire and Circus Performer
​
Alex werst is a circus performer and instructor with 13 years of experience who truly loves all things circus. He has performed in various events ranging from concerts, multi-day festivals, art galleries and corporate events to instructing at circus academies and festivals. Nothing brings me more joy than watching peoples reactions to performances and teaching them fun tricks. He can provide fire safety, permitting and contingency plans as well as fire performance, object manipulation, roaming character and juggling entertainment. Roaming character / juggling / object manipulation is great for daytime events!
Jerzy
Fire Performer
2023 marked the return of the Oregon Country Fair Fire Theatre, in which Jerzy performed as part of a 4-piece choreographed act. Jerzy has also made appearances at the Drain Fire Art Car Festival in 2022 and 2023. After 8 years of performing fire, his prop of choice is a meteor dart: a double-headed rope dart.
