About 15Feet6

15Feet6 is a Belgium based circus company that have been creating outdoor performances and circus acts since 2013. Their most recent projects are League & Legend, Primus, Les Patineurs and La Patinoire. One of their specialities is the Russian bar and that is also where the company's name comes from. 15Ft6 (or 473cm) is the length of their first Russian bar that started it all.

Rosa Tyyskä (FI) After a circus education specializing in Cyr wheel in Sasak (Finland), Rosa sets off on a never-ending tour. From cabarets in Germany over summer festivals with the Finnish female collective Sisus to Cirque du Soleil’s ‘Luzia’. As the never-ending tour comes abruptly to end in 2020 a virtue of necessity was made with the lockdown creation of 'Primus' together with Jasper.

Jasper D'Hondt (B) After graduating as a circus artist at ESAC (Brussels) in 2009 Jasper specializes consecutively in teeterboard, Russian bar, acrobatic bicycle and acrobatic roller skating. His professional activities are situated somewhere between performing, directing and producing circus. After more then a decade the list of projects is becoming too long to mention, in ‘Primus’ he is returning to the stage as performer.

The artists active within the company are Richard Fox (BE/GB), Mateo Giron (ES), Niko Miettinen (FI), Yolaine Dooms (BE), Jarno Vanthuyne (BE) and Rosa Tyyskä (FI). The artistic director is Jasper D'Hondt (BE).
