SEQUOIA ERICKSON

Sequoia Erickson likes making things: from giant butterflies, to shadow puppets, to tutus and samurai armour. A strong belief in the power of the extraordinary compels her to be constantly searching for unusual and visually creative ways to tell stories. 

 

Raised by farmers who were raised by artists, Sequoia comes by her hodge-podge approach to careers honestly. Once she discovered that her hundreds of childhood hobbies could all be considered 'Special Skills' on a theatrical resume there was truly no going back. Sequoia's roots connect her home to Utah and New Zealand, while she is currently planted in Toronto, Canada. Here she has grown for the last decade, working with a myriad of talented folks from: Builders Anonymous, Shadowland Theatre, VStar Entertainment, Talk Is Free Theatre, St. Clair College, Hala On Stilts, Frolick Theatre and more. 

 

She is currently a freelance Costume Designer and Stilt Walker; the Artistic Director of Little Chaos Co. and a graduate of the Performance Production program at Toronto Metropolitan University.
