Hi! My name is Neal. I am a former artistic gymnast and current aerialist, acrobat, and circus artist specializing in aerial rope, aerial pole, tissue, and tumbling of all sorts (power track, air track, ground acrobatics, etc.). However, I am a multi-skilled and versatile performer who enjoys exploring a wide range of other disciplines. I moved to Las Vegas in 2018 to perform as an acrobatic generalist in the cast of Le Rêve - The Dream, the production show at the Wynn on the Las Vegas Strip. I performed there up until the show's Covid-related closure in late 2020. Since then, I have continued my training as well as performed with The Flying Royals on flying trapeze and aerial pole. I am currently part of the cast of Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque du Soleil as a Smooth Criminal tumbler. I'm a graduate of the College of William & Mary, where I competed on the gymnastics team in NCAA Division 1 competition. I graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry and a B.A. in French & Francophone Studies.
My greatest strengths as a performer include a highly developed air awareness, ability to learn and work with partners, groups, and with unfamiliar apparatuses safely and efficiently. Advanced flipping and twisting capabilities. Strong leg, hip, shoulders, and lower back flexibility. Ability to save skills that go wrong to prevent injury. Persistent work ethic and sense of punctuality and professionalism.
If you're interested in working with me for a project, please feel free to message me here or use [email protected]. I can accommodate just about any schedule with advance notice. I look forward to hearing from you!
