Have you ever wanted to run away with the circus? Well, here is your chance! Come and join the Family Circus Workshop offered by Cirque Us. This workshop will cover human pyramids, tumbling, juggling, acrobatics, and clowning. We recommend wearing clothes that are comfortable to move in, and bringing a water bottle. Come learn to flip, fall, and clown around with the artists of Cirque Us!
Cirque Us will present an evening performance, One Man’s Trash: A Repurposed Circus, at 7pm. Tickets to the show are included in the family workshop ticket price. For more information on the show, and to purchase tickets for family members who are not participating in the workshop, click HERE.
