Jean-Ferry began his performance career in Berlin at the tender age of six. In the years that followed he gained a broad range of acrobatic skills, thanks to numerous performances with a wide variety of artistic acts.
He continued his training at the State School for Ballet and Circus Arts in Berlin, from which he graduated in 1994. During his studies at the school he already earned engagement at such distinguished venues as the Friedrichstadtpalast in Berlin, the City Theatre of Dusseldorf, the „Deutsches Theater“ in Berlin, and the Schmidt Theatre in Hamburg.
After graduation Jean-Ferry went swiftly on to enthrall his audiences as one half of the acrobatic-duo „Swing Mortales“: with engagements in amusement parks, circuses, and countless variety shows.
Additionally, he featured in several theatre productions: such as the musical show „30-40-90°- open round-the-clock„ in the „Theater des Westens“ in Berlin.
His ever-growing attraction to the craft of ladder-acrobatics led to the development in 1997 of the act „THE ART OF LADDER ACROBATICS„. Since it´s inception Jean-Ferry has performed this fast-paced show in a wide number of variety productions, including appearances in the Casino San Remo (Italy), the circus production „Salto Natale“ (produced by Rolf and Gregory Knie in Switzerland), the Casino Royal in Baden-Baden (Germany), and the GOP Variety in Bad Oeynhausen (also in Germany).
Besides his variety engagements, Jean-Ferry has proved his artistic excellence in the world of the corporate event and gala market - with an enviable client list that includes Circus Roncalli, FC Bayern München, Siemens, Deutsche Vermögensberatung AG, Vodafone, Allianz, Alstom Power AG, Mercedes-Benz, Commerzbank, and Thyssen Krupp.
In 2006, and after two full years of development, Jean-Ferry introduced a further artistic highlight into his repertoire with his „COMEDY TRAMPOLINE“ act.
In 2008 he created further reprises and short pieces based on his comedy character, including the comical magic act „MULTIPLYING BOTTLES“. In 2011 he premiered, in Stuttgart´s „Friedrichsbau Variete“, the comedy version of his ladder-acrobatics.
And in 2011 and 2012 Jean-Ferry, with his „COMEDY CHARACTER“ and live band accompaniment, provided with his „COMEDY TRAMPOLINE“ and „COMEDY MAGIC“ acts the common thread running through the Christmas production of „Circus Eigenart“ in Bielefeld.
