A Little Bit About the Secret Agents

Picture
They Gotta Be Secret Agents was founded in 2007.

The Secret Agents have been around the block, entertaining audiences of 5 people and audiences of 5000 people, from Forcalquier to Kalamazoo, in roles as dancers, acrobats, and puppeteers, as solo artists and in touring companies. 

What did those silly agents learn from all this? 

Most of all, instead of performing at their audience, Bonnie and Tim learned how to bring an audience along with them into daring and surreal realms. The Agents are courageous yet calm on stage and truly enjoy performing in a way that is palpable and inviting to the audience. The Agents are not air brushed or leotarded; they “wow” you without becoming steely circus performers, and they provoke instrospection without batting you over the head with obscure themes.  Audiences relate to Bonnie and Tim as people and fellow travelers who will immerse you into simply constructed worlds that play with and distort the grand themes of time, scale, formality and reality. Short segments of clowning, video, dance, puppetry, and theatre flow into one another and spin together touching moments with humorous ones.  

There is something for everyone at a Secret Agents show.

In 2010, Tim started the long process of becoming a doctor.  He is now a 4th year medical student at New York University (go Class of 2014!).  Because he is studying ALL OF THE TIME and helping people who are sick, Bonnie is carrying out the Secret Agent's work on her own with Squirrel Stole My Underpants.  

Well, not completely alone---she has enlisted many people to fill the role of Tim.  He's got big shoes to fill.  Size 13 to be exact...


Agent Bonnie

Bonnie Duncan grew up in the South where she danced and swam competitively. She studied education and theatre in college and grad school where she developed a knack for costuming on the cheap and acting in original theatre pieces. She danced for eight years with Snappy Dance Theater, where she became addicted to being thrown around by good-looking men. Bonnie creates and performs solo puppet shows for adults in her living room and in fancy theaters. She also does some costume design on the side and is mom to Jack Ozro (7), Rex & Adelaide (4 & 4). And finally, she loves cupcakes.

Agent Tim

Tim Gallagher grew up in New England where he studied ballet and modern dance, learned to cook vegetarian, made his own clothes, and rowed on the high school crew team.  He plunged into the theater world with Travelling Treasure Trunk at Tufts University and earned a BFA in photography from The Museum School.  He danced for six years with the acrobatic Snappy Dance Theater, while choreographing and teaching throughout New England.  Now he lives in NYC, rides his pink fixed-gear bike, Harvey, all around town, and loves to fly in his dreams.  He is currently a second year Emergency Room resident at NYU's Bellevue Hospital.
