Under the artistic direction of founder Cypher Zero, the Company’s skilled performers integrate artistic crafts including ballet, gymnastics, physical comedy and traditional circus arts, into a seamless spectacle that draws from diverse artistic traditions while creating an entirely new experience.
Inspired by increasing demand for recreational and pre-professional training in FireFly’s aerial art form, the New York Circus Arts Academy opened Fall 2006. A variety of courses are currently taught, including silks, trapeze, juggling, and Chinese pole. To promote the growth of aerial acrobatics as a fine art, FireFly and NYCAA staff are also developing a visual glossary and choreographic notation system for documenting aerial acrobatic movements and sequences.
