The circus is coming to town! The circus is coming to town! No elephants, no lions and no bears, but lots of stunts, contortion and aerial arts. And for the those who aren’t content watch from the bleachers, there are classes for kids leading up to the show.

The Circus Is Coming to OmCulture in Wallingford!
The Vespertine Circus is inspired by the Golden Age of traveling, family-based circuses. They mix the aesthetic stylings of Dr. Seuss with Comedia Del Arte infused clowning. Sure to delight audiences of all ages, they mix comedy, stunts, acrobatics, puppets, juggling, contortion, hoop-dance, aerial-arts, and storytelling in a mess of wild rabblerousing and outlandish shenanigans.

Vespertine Circus says: As performers, we are moved to attempt seemingly impossible feats, in the hopes that we may challenge what you believe is possible in your own life. More than a touch otherworldly, we’re the kind of circus you wanted to run away with as a kid.
