Starting her theatrical career as a professional dancer, Briana Bowie quickly sharpened her skills as an acrobat, aerialist and actor to become one of the most diverse and passionate artists in her field. Her passions for choreography, production, and storytelling make her an undeniable powerhouse of creativity. Utilizing the skills she has learned over her fifteen-year career, she has galvanized a variety of techniques and styles to create unforgettable works of art for both the stage and camera. 

In her early years, she adhered to a rigorous international touring schedule with dynamic, high-risk, and entertaining companies such as Diavolo Dance Theater and Fuerza Bruta. This taught her how to be fearless, collaborative, and committed. Honing her skills over the past decade, she has performed for Cirque du Soleil in three separate productions. As an original artist of the critically-acclaimed production IRIS, she played an integral role, performing as a dancer, clown backup, and dance captain. In Zarkana, she performed aerial hoop in addition to playing multiple characters; most notably Ti-Boss and The Apprentice. Lastly, working with The Beatles LOVE production at The Mirage in Las Vegas, Bowie was contracted as their only dancer/acrobat/aerialist artist. 

Enthusiastically motivated by the art of storytelling, she’s expanded her artistry to include circus artists and athletes of all disciplines. Whether audiences want to be entertained or deeply moved, her unique skill set enables her to execute on both accounts.

For her inaugural choreographic work with Cirque du Soleil, Bowie was honored when asked by directors Nicky and Laetitia Dewhurst to join the team of One Night for One Drop’s 2018 production. Tasked with choreographing multiple dances, and working with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, Jewel. In 2022 she choreographed for CDS again for the Imagine Dragons’ concert at Allegiant Stadium. Her next fortunate job was when Dragone asked her to join the creative team on an original production entitled Terhal in Saudi Arabia. She then traveled again to Saudi Arabia working for Our legacy Creations on the UNESCO World Heritage Opening Ceremonies.

In her debut original production, Bowie choreographed, co-wrote, and co-directed KINEKT, a mesmerizing spectacle of aerial arts and acrobatics combined with the poetry of dance and theatre. A contemporary circus show about a father and son’s struggle to stay connected in this technological age. Applauded for its high-level circus skills and artistry, KINEKT’s heartfelt message is timeless and moving.  

She also co-directed The Cirque Cabaret, a one-night special event with original acts created and performed by elite circus artists.

Endlessly driven and passionate, Bowie continues to collaborate with diversely skilled companies and artists for the stage and camera.
