Poppy Plowman is a neurodiverse British circus artist with Turkish Cypriot origins. Specialising in tight wire she experienced her lower education in several different circus schools across Europe before graduating from Le Centre National des Arts du Cirque de Châlons en Champagne (CNAC) in 2018.

​

She later took up hair hanging and high wire, and has since performed these specialist disciplines in circus companies across Europe including: Le Cirques des Petites Natures, Race Horse Company, The Revel Puck Circus, Gorilla Circus & NoFit State Circus.

​

Since then Poppy has dedicated her time to creating her own work around themes of intersectionality, exploring how different social identities overlap with one another as well as the systems of power that privilege and advantage people as a result.

 

Her aim is to create all-inclusive work that actively embraces identity and inspires anti oppressive attitudes to emerge from her audience. Her diverse background and rich knowledge of circus has enabled her to create high level, innovative live art that is both deeply personal and universally resonant. ​
