Biography 

Francesca started circus and dance at age 11 as a rambunctious child with energy to spare. Since then she has continued to put energy into the circus in a more serious way, performing since age 13 in venues from breweries to theaters, Francesca has performed in many shows most recently with Troy Wunderle's Big Top Adventures, The Cirque Us and taking part in The Bindlestiff Open Stage, as well as many performances at The New England Center for Circus Arts (Necca). Her talents range across disciplines from Tippy Lyra to dance to Tightwire and include cooking and crochet. Francesca loves bringing bright and creative characters to the stage and now as she is about to graduate from Necca in the spring, is ready to put her energy into something new and creative.

Testimonials

Elena MR

"Francesca is a great collaborator, down for anything and quick to both pick up and produce ideas when necessary. Both fun and real about buckling down and rehearsing!"

Syd Wes

Francesca is one of the most talented performers I have ever had the pleasure of sharing a stage with! Her professionalism, willingness to lean into new experiences, and incredible skill make her both easy and joyful to work with. Francesca is the hardest working person I know, and her dedication to her craft may only be surpassed by her extreme passion. She is always willing to step in and help wherever needed and is able to seamlessly adapt to unpredictable circumstances. It's my honest opinion that you couldn't ask for a better performer to work with!
