About
A One Man Circus is a juggler for hire in West Perth, WA.
Morgan James works alone and fills a stage anyway. A One Man Circus mixes physical comedy, spinning plates, audience participation and serious juggling skill, with the diabolo (the Chinese yoyo) as his signature prop. The larrikin patter is aimed squarely at families, so the kids get the tricks and the adults get the jokes underneath them. Fringe World in Perth has handed the show a swag of awards, including Overall Best Children's Event in both 2022 and 2023, plus a Critic's Choice weekly award and the Sydney Fringe Tour Ready Award. Sydney Fringe Festival named it a weekly winner for Best Kids Show in 2025 and awarded it Silver for Best in Genre. Brighton Fringe in the UK nominated it too.
