BiographyHistory

Internationally renowned circus performer Emma Serjeant graduated from the National Institute of Circus Arts (Melbourne) in 2006. She soon afterwards founded a multi art form rehearsal space and venue in Melbourne before moving to Brisbane to work with C!RCA as an ensemble member for three years. She then devoted another year to the C!RCA training centre as Head Trainer and Youth Circus Director where she developed skills as a producer and creative leader.

In late 2011 Serjeant co-founded Casus Circus. The company's first production Knee Deep, won multiple awards and continues to tour the world extensively having been performed more than 400 times in more than 100 cities and 11 countries.

During her four years as Executive Director of Casus Circus, Serjeant developed several new shows including Finding the Silence and her critically acclaimed solo work, Grace.

In 2016 she created ESP – Emma Serjeant Performance, a production house for contemporary circus and hybrid performance with the simple premise ‘Amazing Humans Doing Amazing Things!’
