In this episode of Aerial Evolution, Rowan and Jane have a conversation with New Zealand aerialist Deb Pope. Deb was one of the very first aerialists in London. In this episode she recounts what brought her to England, those scrappy early days, the massive obstacles they faced and just how far the artform has come. While Deb has had a thrilling and rewarding career that includes performing worldwide on some of the largest stages as well as avant garde ones, she now finds more fulfillment than ever through teaching. Deb’s career arc proves that it is possible to continue to surprise yourself, learn, evolve and share especially within this community.
