Finger Circus


Finger Circus is contemporary dance troop based in the San Francisco Bay area, whose performances primarily focus on "finger tutting." "Tutting," originally performed by funk dancers in the mid- to late- 1960s, pulls stylistic influence from the figural representations found in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics.

Finger Circus has performed in multiple venues and pop-culture videos including McDonald’s commercials, Taylor Swift’s "Shake It Off" music video and the "A-Z of Dance, " presented by Diesel and i-D magazine. Members of Finger Circus include Christopher Chase Lindsey (CTut), Bela Joseph Sao (Strobe), Jordan Kaysean Demings (Era), Reymar Anonuevo Silverio  (Nemesis) and John Ray Hunt (P-nut).
