Sadye Osterloh (she/her) has been a giant ham since the moment she was born. Or was it a turkey? As a nationally and internationally touring performer, instructor and choreographer, she has a passion for sparking joy and empowerment through movement and laughter. She enjoys dangling off of aerial apparatuses and other humans, dressing up like a hot dog, teaching Dorky Dance Fitness, eating crunchy food on stage and opening up jars that other people have previously loosened - and feeling triumphant about it.

Matthew “Poki” McCorkle (they/them) creates mesmerizing & surreal spectacle. In the past few months Poki has spent countless hours tinkering, hammering, prying, degreasing, greasing, new-bearing-ing, and otherwise restoring this old crane. In the past, Poki has spent 6 seasons performing in Germany’s finest dinner theatre shows with PALAZZO. They joined Clowns Without Borders to perform for children in The Philippines (2013) and in Palestine West Bank (2019). They have been on 3 tours with The New Old Time Chautaqua to prisons, old folks homes, tribal reservations, and state parks. As well as the stuff mentioned above, for Poki, pandemic time has meant beard growing and self reflection. And Sourkraut making. And mushroom hunting.

Jill Marissa (she/her) is a seasoned performing artist with a passion for handbalancing, dance, wildly versatile character work and aerial apparatus of all sorts, especially other humans! She has had the privilege of performing on contracts internationally with the Aerialistas and as one half of the trapeze duo Two of Wands. As a co-founder ticktock dance, one of Seattle’s first circus companies to meld aerial arts with contemporary dance, she has presented work in the NYC aerial dance festival, Aloft! Chicago, the New Orleans Fringe Festival, and all over the PNW, including Moisture Festival, Emerald City Trapeze Arts, and FRED Wildlife Refuge. By far the most challenging trick she has attempted is being a mother, which she practices daily.
