The Flying Pages
Featured Troupe

Husband and wife team, Willy and Jill Pages have been performing their flying trapeze act together since 1992, after enjoying successful careers as aerialists with various other troupes. Willy Pages, third generation of the Cuban circus family, spent the majority of his career performing with his brothers, Jorge and Felix as the Flying Pages. These talented aerialists won gold medals for their trapeze act and the silver cup for the “Best Act” at the London Circus World Championships. When his brothers retired from performing in 1991, Willy and Jill continued the family tradition of the Flying Pages. Jill began her professional aerialist career at the age of 16 and won “Best Female Trapeze Artist” at age 19 in the Monte Carlo Circus Festival in Monaco. Together Willy and Jill have performed in the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, Circus Circus in Reno, Nev., and the Big Apple Circus. An invitational trip to Monaco in 2002 brought the coveted “Bronze Clown” and the “Cup of Nice.” Most recently, the couple has traveled with the Shrine and Royal Hanneford Circuses, the Varieties for Cirque Du Soleil, Germany’s Circus Krone, Japan Taiwan and Circus Sarasota. Both their son Anthony and daughter Mercedes perform in the act with Anthony now throwing the triple somersault! Rounding out the troupe are Eric Craft who trained with the Amateur Circus in Peru and Vanya Ponce who has performed in the ring since she was five.
