A new dimension of circus & theatre

Kinetic Theory is dedicated to exploring and expanding the boundaries of physical and circus theatre through performances and ongoing training. Our goal is to inspire people of all ages and all walks of life through physical, circus and experimental theatre.

News & Annoucements

LA FACILITY CLOSED

In 2021, after a year-long mandatory closure due to COVID 19, we made the difficult decision to close our Los Angeles school and theatre permanently. Kinetic Theory Circus Arts was a truly magical place. We fostered circus-theatre skills, talent, and creativity as well as friendships and community since 2008. Although we no longer have a facility, we are still committed to exploring and expanding the boundaries of physical and circus theatre. We thank all of those that helped shape our past and welcome everyone to be a part of our future!

ARTISTIC COACHING & CONSULTING

Stephanie Abrams has coached many professional performers and helped them hone their craft on stage and find their creative voices. Whether you need to clean up a bit of choreography or need guidance through the whole creation or production process, Stephanie can help you every step of the way. She is currently offering private coaching and artistic consulting for artists of all disciplines in person and virtually.

"Stephanie Abrams is a well of information. I came to her with a half-baked idea, and she helped me develop it into the pop-up art gallery I Am Woman, Watch Me Bleed. I can count on her for every step of the artistic and logistical process—she somehow always asks the exact right questions to help me clarify what I want to say. She's also incredibly generous with her own resources, offering templates for things like contracts and press releases so you're not starting from scratch. She's someone I trust completely, and I can't wait to team up with her on future projects.” - Kim Mehlon, circus artist and women's right activist
