Nick Ng

Nick (he/they) is an award-winning Asian American circus artist known for his dynamic style peppered with moments of emotive stillness. In 2017, Nick ran away from the world of clinical dietetics to join the circus, specializing in aerial rope, straps, silks, and cyr wheel. He has performed with Dolly Parton, Acrobatic Conundrum, Celebrity Cruises Entertainment, and fulfilled his dream of joining Cirque du Soleil’s South American tour of Messi10 in 2023 and 2024.

As a queer person of color, much of Nick’s personal work is inspired by themes of race and emotional trauma, but also hope. He hopes his work will inspire others to think more critically of life around them and how they can change things for the better. Now, Nick is very happy living his dreams of traveling and performing around the world. Let him bring you on an adventure.
