Wallenda Enterprises Inc. - Exceeding The Limits of Tradition
Welcome to Wallenda Enterprises; official home of The World
Famous Wallenda Troupe. We offer thrills, stunts and highwire
entertainment. From daredevil acts to theatrical entertainment, The
World Famous Wallenda's will provide top-notch, quality entertainment.
As a Guinness book of World Record Holder, Rick Wallenda will
endeavour to bring more record breaking events to the record books
with the troupe. We were formerly The Great Wallendas Inc. With new
enterprises, we have outgrown the old shell but still offer the same
quality entertainment services as previously. Our entertainment goes
beyond the traditional limitations of the past, but we honor those who
performed before us making the Wallenda name what it is today. More
than 200 years of entertainment experience is now combined with
professional writers and artists as the 21st century opens new
pathways.
The Wallenda Family
In this page the Wallenda family presents many aspects of circus history, professional
high wire thrills, skywalks, entertainment and the individuals involved who built these
traditions. You will meet all the members of The World Famous Wallenda Troupe
performing against the backdrop of these traditions.
The patriarch, Karl Wallenda, and his wife of more than forty years, Helen Wallenda,
brought the original troupe to the Ringling Brothers Circus. Older brother Herman
Wallenda, and family friend Joe Geiger, toured with the act for many years. The foursome
increased in size eventually creating the famed seven, and once an eight-person pyramid.
Karl established the Wallenda dynasty with his two daughters, Jenny Wallenda, and
Carla Wallenda. Each generation added to the traditions. Karl’s grand-children from his
first wife, Martha Henderson, Tino Wallenda-Zoppe, Delilah Wallenda Troffer, and
Tammy Wallenda, children of Jenny, formed their own troupes. Carla, Helen’s daughter,
helped train her children Rick Wallenda, Rietta Wallenda, Mario Wallenda, and Valerie
Wallenda. They remained with the original troupe, The Great Wallendas, and continued
after the death of their grandfather.
Now another generation follows these same traditions, Nicholas Troffer dba Nicholas
Wallenda, his sister Lijana, and cousins, Alex Wallenda, sisters Aurelia, Alida, and
Andrea, still tour under their respective names, the Flying Wallendas, the Fabulous
Wallendas, or use of many other substitute adjectives. Rick Wallenda still heads the
families’ original enterprise—Wallenda Enterprises—exceeding the limits of tradition as
The World Famous Wallendas.
Karl learned highwire on a steel cable, rather than the older tightrope. All Wallenda
troupes continue to look to new technology making highwire safer, better, and more
thrilling. Even the ropes are now made of synthetic materials, lasting longer, and providing
greater stability.
If you are a first time visitor, a fan, a potential client, or just curious; read these pages,
check the archives for historical information, shop our store, look for entertainment, thrills,
stunts, or theatrical productions. If something does not appear, we probably just omitted it
from this page. Please ask. We are here because of you.
