The LONGER story:
Weightless Aerial believes in circus. In February 2015, we decided to take Weightless Aerial Company from a group of independent performing artists with accomplished solo careers, to a professional LLC. We specialize in circus theatre, and translating movement into stories. We believe in making people smile. We believe that sometimes the world becomes clearer upside down and that everyone should have a chance to experience the life changing magic of circus arts. Our artists value creative exploration, high moral conduct, personal development, and a desire to improve both themselves and the aerial community at large. We are Organizational members of the American Circus Educators Association and the American Youth Circus Organization. We are insured, professional, family friendly, and FUN!

Weightless has performed for, The Levitt Shell, Harley Davidson, Horseshoe Casino, the Shrine Circus, The Memphis Area Relators Association, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Shelby Farms, Pickler Companies and MANY more. We have taught for many state Thespian Society Conferences, private and public elementary, middle, and high school programs, and run the Aerial and Circus class at Rhodes College, among others. In partnership with Memphis Comedy Festival, we produced Night Shift, our own original circus theatre shows, for 3 years. We co-produced Edward Albee’s “The Zoo Story” and Mark Ravenhill’s “Pool (no water)” at the McCoy Theatre. Weightless is happy to have worked with all kinds of traveling and guests artists as well as shared stages with prestigious acts and bands. We are committed to providing professional, safe circus arts that are accessible for all people.

The Weightless difference is a personal touch, a real audience connection, and our love of family entertainment. We believe in the spirit of the circus, and that circus is for everyone. Let us know how we can share our art with you.

We can rig virtually anywhere with our outdoor/indoor portable aerial rig. With three experienced riggers on our staff we are sure to be able to suit your needs.
