Milan-born Firenza Guidi is an independent, award-winning theatre/circus, film director, writer and visual artist who has developed NoFit State style of performance as a touring company through all incarnations of Immortal, Tabú and more recently Bianco. Firenza trained as a performer with international masters such as Dario Fo, Philippe Gaulier, Enrique Pardo and Ida Kelarova; and as an actress/singer at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. In 1989 she founded Elan (European Live Arts Network) and since 2004, she’s been running her Creative Centre housed in an old olive press in Tuscany, Italy.

She has a PhD in Renaissance Tragedy and an MA in Film. For the last 20 years she's been developing her unique style of circus training and performance creating scores of small and large scale performances throughout Europe and beyond, training and inspiring performers and artists from all over the world. She has given papers and talks in many different venues and institutions.

Her work, which has become emblematic and the focus of documentaries and dissertations across countries, is an all-encompassing methodological approach and ongoing research based on two fundamental beliefs: the performer is an all-round, time-based being with body, voice, memory and a fundamental ironic and subversive quality on stage; the space and the spectator are co-players in the artistic process. The vision for each show creates a world  which the spectators enter and not simply watch from afar.

Before starting her aerial arts career 13 years ago, Jessica Piekos trained in and performed ballet, modern, and jazz dance with the Nashville Ballet and enjoyed a successful international modeling and acting career, which brought her to stages in Paris, Milan, London, New York, and more. She has performed on and trained in many aerial apparatuses, including tissu, hoop, hammock, Spanish web, trapeze (static, bungee, and flying), stilt dancing, and several specialty apparatuses such as aerial chains, cube and fire hoop. In 2005, Jessica opened The Aerial Classroom in Los Angeles. Today her studio is one of top aerial schools in LA, producing performers who have gone on to successful careers with companies such as Cirque du Soleil, Ringling Brothers, Sea World, and Club Med. Many schools, colleges, and fitness studios have approached Jessica to lead aerial programs, expanding the curriculum for students in performing arts. She has also had the pleasure of training popular celebrities such as Carmen Electra and Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian. Jessica spent the last decade running a talent agency called Aerial Showgirls, booking performances internationally. In an effort to help expand and support the circus community and its performers, Jessica produces and hosts an annual, nationwide talent competition in Los Angeles called Circus Star. Her most recent endeavor includes founding Circus Lux, an elite aerial training troupe where Jessica personally hand picks and helps up-and-coming performers perfect their skills and begin their circus careers.
