After a two year hiatus, we are thrilled to announce the return of the Big Top Tour in summer 2022!

The 2022 Big Top Tour show is called On the Road Again in celebration of taking our nonprofit youth circus back on tour.

About The Big Top Tour

Every summer, a freshly auditioned company of Smirkus Troupers, ages 10 to 18, take to the road in traditional mud show fashion for a two-month performance tour of New England.

Backed by professional coaches, cooks, musicians and crew, our Smirkos perform to sell-out crowds in Circus Smirkus’ very own 750-seat European-style one-ring big top tent.

Each year brings a new storyline and original full-length show combining the best in traditional and contemporary circus styles.

We give our Troupers the full experience of touring in a classic traveling tent show.

That means a complete immersion in circus life. Smirkus endure rigorous training, daily chores and the loading in and loading out of the Big Top.

They revel in the joy of performance and the camaraderie of a common purpose — the passion of a shared dream and nearly 50 shows in just six weeks!
