Profile
Jonathan Morin
Creator and founder of 2-zen-O (which is a play on words of ” deux anneaux ” in French, meaning ” two rings “), Jonathan Morin has rapidly built a solid reputation as a uniquely gifted physical artist and an innovative circus performer.
Jonathan was an international competitive gymnast which led him to become an aerial circus artist in Quidam with the prestigious Cirque du Soleil for many years. In constant evolution to become a complete artist, he also studied extensively in the field of acting and also performed as an independent character artist in hundreds of events.
Since 2005, his energy has been solely devoted to developing a remarkably innovative apparatus—the “Crossed Wheel”. With the creation of this unique acrobatic instrument, 2-zen-O was launched. 2-zen-O proudly offers you two extraordinary and exclusive performances, the solo on the ground, and the aerial duo. In 2011, Jonathan has had the privilege to join forces with Cirque du Soleil once again in the production of Dralion but this time, with his very own unique instrument which had never been seen in the history of this world-renowned company.
From 2015 on, the aerial duo performed with the talented Marie-Eve Bisson drew tremendous attention when first launched internationally at “Idol” Moscow Festival by bringing back Silver Awards, followed by the Silver Elefant in Figueres Festival in Spain in 2016. In 2018, it was the Bronze Clown at the most prestigious circus Festival in the World in Monte Carlo, and closer to date, the Gold Piste in Massy Festival in 2019. For the solo, the Bronze Yellow Crane Award at the Wuhan Festival in 2016 in China was added to the list of Awards. In 2019, Jonathan was chosen to be part of the return of the iconic show of Alegria by Cirque du Soleil with his solo performance of the Crossed Wheel.
