The Kingston Stilting Troupe is dedicated to bringing awe and beauty to the people of Kingston.

 

Since 2014 we have been animating public events, including the Kingston PRIDE parade, the Memorial St. Market, Dias de Muertos at the Tett Centre, Kingston’s Hiroshima Peace Walk, and Queen’s University Homecoming games.

 

Our troupe trains together regularly for strength and core training, to explore physical theatre, dance, choreography, clown techniques, and collaborate on costume creation.

 

Our goals include:

• Expanding capacity for stilt-walking here in Kingston;

• supporting non-profit community events;

• creating magical experiences in unexpected moments;

• popping UP and bringing joy and attention to issues of import;

• offering local artists with paid opportunities to perform.
