Nona Narcisse - Living Statue

Nona Narcisse performs as a living statue. As an interactive artist, she will entertain groups of guests for moments of time, as she moves in and out of stillness. Dressed in her elegant costume, with a copper face, Nona remains motionless until a guest brings her to life. Once activated, Nona will entertain and amuse visitors with her playful and endearing performance.

Performing as a 'living statue', Nona has been part of the Baltimore Harbor Performing Program since 2011. She has performed her statue at hired events and festivals across the country. Nona is very good at being still, but she loves to move! With a strong dance background, she has had training from the age of four in ballet, modern dance, African dance, and belly dance. Nona has theater, clown, and mime training from the Celebration Barn Theater.
