Circus Smirkus at the Simsbury Performing Arts Center

Circus Smirkus will be held at the Simsbury Performing Arts Center on July 30th and July 31st from 1 pm to 8 pm.

Ladies and Gentlemen, girls and boys! Step right up because the Circus is in town – and this year, our theme is the great American Carnival! In a fast-moving world, our show is inspired by the elegance of the carousel ride, the thrill of the roller coaster, and games of chance and skill that have long inspired young and old alike! You’ll see our troupers run for their lives through the haunted mansion, try their luck at the ring toss, balance their way through the house of fun, and discover romance in the tunnel of love! Circus Smirkus’ 2019 show Carnival is coming to town; step right up and join in the fun!

This year’s Troupe is comprised of 30 hardworking and talented teenagers ages 11-18 who come from Colorado, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maine, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia, Vermont, Washington and Canada.
