The New Zealand born Trygve (pronounced Trig-vee ) is a physical comedy performer who studied at Ecole Philippe Gaulier, the prestigious Paris clown school with alumni including Sasha Baron-Cohen and Emma Thompson. Wakenshaw's unique style combines mime, physical theater and cheeky idiocy - he is mad, risqué and uniquely eccentric. The critically acclaimed, award-winning clown presents his beautifully strange stream-of-consciousness idiocy in three different shows. His hilarious and fun hit physical comedies SQUIDBOY, KRAKEN,  and NAUTILUS  have been known to sell out at festivals around the world. He is also touring is his award winning DIFFERENT PARTY with best friend and collaborator Barnie Duncan.

Trygve is currently creating a new show for Edinburgh Fringe 2024, SILLY LITTLE THINGS.
