See the Circus Amperean perform high-voltage feats of derring-do! Watch as their mighty Tesla Coil entertains us with powerful electrical fields! These performers face the forces of a half-million volts at a distance of mere millimeters, protected only by Maxwell's equations (and some painfully-developed technology)!
The troupe consists of Mike Urdiales, an interlocutor and high voltage performer; Vanessa Rohler, an expert at stagecraft and manipulating fire; Eric Ward, audio, video, and fire expert; and Carl Noggle, the old man behind the curtain.
