The Greatest Show on Earth

TRIN’s signature work, The Greatest Show on Earth (GSOE), tells the epic tale of a group of traveling performance artists seeking their hearts’ truest desires — amidst the grime, mundanity, and unpredictability of life on the road. Set in a fantastical circus world, this hero’s journey explores themes of identity, relationships, pop culture, trauma, and collective healing. A tribute to queer chosen family, GSOE is a living, evolving vessel for honesty, storytelling, and empowerment. With each new iteration, it grows alongside its creators and community.

TRIN is a contemporary dance theatre collective co-directed by Los Angeles-based artists Monica Williams, Tippy Dringman, and Mason Gray. Formed in 2021 out of seven years of friendship and collaboration, TRIN creates theatrical, daring, sensual, and comedic work rooted in queer experience, mutual care, and play. Their performances are grounded in a shared belief in community, connection, and the power of performance to transform.
