March 10, 2025We had the pleasure of featuring Tonya Wish at our Colleague Annual Awards event, and her performance was nothing short of mesmerizing. Her grace, strength and artistry captivated our audience and added an unforgettable element to the evening.
From the breathtaking aerial maneuvers to stilt walking, it was seamlessly executed. Every moment of the performance was stunning. Not only was Tonya incredibly talented, but also professional, easy to work with and truly dedicated to creating a magical experience for our colleagues.
We highly recommend Tonya to anyone looking to elevate their event with an amazing performance. Thank you for making our celebration so special!

December 9, 2019Antonina wasn’t available for my party but she did assist and find a fantastic talent - Kelly Jo who brought a hoop act and a Cyr wheel. My guests loved it! Antonia was patient with me and answered all the questions I had. She was completely professional from start to finish. 100% impressed.

Your guests can expect cinematic, high-impact moments paired with warm, polished hospitality. We deliver a curated mix of feature acts and roaming ambiance tailored to your theme and timeline: aerial artistry on a freestanding lollipop lyra for dramatic reveals, elegant stilt greeters for grand entrances and photos, LED party activators and champagne dress performers for interactive crowd engagement, and optional fire numbers for an unforgettable finale. We are fully insured and for fire performances we include trained safety staff and follow venue approval. The result is a beautifully produced experience guests will talk about long after the night ends.
I’m Tonya Wish, a lifelong competitive gymnast turned cirque performer and the founder of WeCirque in the Washington DC area. Years of stage work shaped my approach: striking visuals, precise safety, and gracious hospitality. I lead a trusted team of aerialists, stilt walkers, LED and fire artists who tailor performances and ambiance to your theme, venue, and timeline. My goal is simple: moments that feel effortless for planners and unforgettable for guests.
