USA Projects

Kennedy Kabasares is an aerial artist and actor. He has worked with a diversity of theater companies, including East West Players, Center Theater Group, performance trio zero3, and Kinetic Theory Circus Arts. An almost chance encounter with a circus school in Los Angeles led to several years of training with world-class coaches such as Eric Newton (Cirque du Soleil, Quidam), Karyn and Sara Steben (Cirque du Soleil, Saltimbanco) and Rachel Walker (Cirque du Soleil, Kooza). He was invited to compete in the 2011 Aerial Acrobatic Arts Festival in Denver, where he took first place for static trapeze, and went on to perform in the finals.  He is focusing on creating a combination of aerial art and theater, and bringing it to smaller, intimate venues. His current project, PULL, is a narrative theater circus collaboration with performance artist traci kato-kiriyama, which has been presented in the US and Canada.
