Star Walker
Star has been entertaining audiences over her lifetime starting with theater and improv in her teens. Upon graduating with a BA in Film, she became intrigued by fire performing and circus arts however, her true passion is stilt performance. Star has discovered that the art of stilt walking pairs well with all her favorite forms of performing: clowing, improv, stilt-dance, aerial-stilts, acro-stilts, and stilting with fire! Star has had the pleasure of studying/working/performing with the Carpetbag Brigade, a traveling stilt company who studied directly under David Clarkson of Stalker Theater (the inventor of acro-stilting). She has also attended and volunteered at several Global Stilt Congresses hosted by stilters around the globe who come together to share their culture and style of stilt art. Throughout her career, she has created and performed solo acts and group performances for various events and has been able to travel, meet, and work with some amazing talent along the way. Star resides in the Twin Cities and continues to work as a stilt walker with various local companies and on her own.
