About
Swinging on monkey bars wasn’t enough of a challenge for Catherine, so she decided to try flying on a trapeze instead. She took her first trapeze class at Circus Juventas in Minnesota, and continued to train and perform with them for 13 years. After getting her BA in theater arts from the University of Minnesota, she moved out to Philadelphia to attend Circadium School of Contemporary Circus, graduating in 2023 as a dance trapeze major. Since moving to Philadelphia, she’s performed with Cirque Us, American Tightwire, Alterra Productions, 7 Textures, and more.
