Evelyne Paquin-Lanthier is a Montréal-based aerial trapeze artist specializing in duet trapeze. As soon as she graduated from the École nationale de cirque, she travelled the world, winning a silver medal at the Wuhan International Circus Festival in China and a gold at the Young Stage International Circus Festival in Basel, Switzerland. Paquin-Lanthier draws her energy and inspiration from the camaraderie of the circus world. Her greatest pride is taking part in creating a group act that is greater than the sum of each member’s individual talents. One of the few woman trapeze catchers, Paquin-Lanthier is proud to project a different perspective of femininity: strength. Between tours, she can be found practicing her favorite sport on a climbing wall with friends.
