Eliana Perlmutter
Eliana is a dynamic circus performer who wows audiences with her Cyr wheel, partner acrobatics, and tumbling skills. Eliana loves sharing circus through both performing and teaching. She finds it particularly satisfying to take audiences on emotional, often joyous, journeys.
After graduating from Smith College and working as a government relations professional in Washington, DC for five years, Eliana jetted off to Portland, Oregon in 2021 to pursue circus full-time. She co-founded and continues to produce and perform with her ensemble contemporary circus company, Constructive Interference (cicircus.com). When not training, performing, or coaching, Eliana can often be found on the search for a new cafe or trail to explore or cajoling those around her to join in partner acrobatics shenanigans.
