Joy and Aaron have been dabbling in the arts of clown, juggling, and acrobatics for more than 20 years.
Joy Powers began clowning at a young age with Circus Smirkus, and has since gone on to tour the country with Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus, Cirque Us, and Hideaway Circus. She co-created and starred in the Piccolini Trio’s "Circus in a Trunk", and Theater in the Open’s "Petrushka and the Caterpillar". She is also a healthcare clown year-round with the Laughter League, serving Boston Children’s and Hasbro Children’s hospitals.
Aaron Dewitt, having grown up in a small town surrounded by many talented performers, developed his juggling skills which would lead him also to join Circus Smirkus, and later onto Quebec, Canada where he would study circus professionally. Aaron has performed and toured the world with contemporary circus companies such as Cirque Eloize, Les 7 Doigts de la main, Theatre a Tempo and many more.
Joy and Aaron joined forces in 2022, and continue to combine and develop their skills to create several original circus acts that will have you laughing, clapping, and pleasantly impressed.
Local to the Boston area, and yes we travel!
