Nick Ng - Professional Portfolio
Bio:
Nick Ng (he/they) is an award-winning Asian American circus artist known for his dynamic style, crowd engagement, and emotive stillness. Specializing in aerial and cyr wheel, his circus career has brought him to 6 continents with Dolly Parton, Acrobatic Conundrum, Celebrity Cruises, the Roald Dahl Story Company, Shoestring Circus, and last but not least, his dream role with Cirque du Soleil's South American tour of Messi10. He brings to the stage his unique look, performance quality, and experiences to inspire others to think more critically of life around them and how they can change for the better. He loves the combination of athleticism and art in circus, and moving his body to move the hearts and minds of his audiences. Now at the height of his career, he has become the role model and inspiration that he wished for when he was younger: confident and proud of who they are and spreading love and smiles with their passion. Let him bring you on an adventure.
