Come see the Vermont based, international, traveling youth circus! Kids ages 11-18 are stars on highwire and trapeze, and as clowns, jugglers, acrobats and more. The New York Times called this circus 'exuberant' and 'joyful.'

This year's theme is 'Wilderness Wonders: Outdoor Adventures Under the Big Top.' This fabulous four-seasoned spectacle will be fun for the whole family.

The award-winning international traveling youth circus performs high wire, juggling, trapeze, acrobatics, aerials, clowning and more. Seating is open, and kids are permitted to sit on the floor right next to the ring, so arrive early for best seating.

Great Show Very Impressive

The show is 2 hours long with one 15 minute intermission. The seating is bleacher style first come first serve but it is small enough that there are really no bad seats; they even let kids sit on the floor ring side. All the performers are kids ages 5ish -18. They are all very talented and have amazing skills. There are no animals, just clowns and skilled performances. The costumes are well done and the artistic quality is very well done. All to live music! We took our 3.5 year old and 14 month old and our 3.5 was amazed and really enjoyed the show. We plan on making this an annual event. We recommend dressing comfortably and light and bringing water bottles. They sell them for $4 and even though it is a good cause, the seating was tight and it was a very humid summer night under a tent with lots of lights....you can easily spend $20 on a few bottles of water. This is a great family night out and even though it is a few $, it is well worth every penny if you like this kind of entertainment.
