Openair Circus
OPENAIR Circus is a non-profit community-based circus. Our primary program is our summer circus, wher
We're watching the skies (ok, the forecast mostly) and desperately holding out hope but it doesn't seem likely that we'll be rehearsing tonight. We'll return with a final determination probably early this afternoon.
The forecast for every performance this weekend looks AMAZING though!
It's going to be hot out tonight so put on your sunscreen and bring some water. We're mostly in the shade so that will help. There is the chance of rain but right now it's below 50% so we're cautiously optimistic about classes taking place. Friendly reminder that hula hoops is canceled this week.
There's still time to register for classes if you haven't already!
While we won't be at the field today, that doesn't mean you can't get your circus fix. Here's some viewing suggestions from one of our organizers:
LET'S GO TO THE CIRCUS" KIDDIE CARTOON

This is adorable without much dialogue--Great for little ones.
"THE SECRET LIVES OF CIRCUS KIDS" BRITISH DOCUMENTARY TV SERIES
https://tubitv.com/series/300002039/circus-kids-our-secret-world
I watched a bit and was impressed-- Seems to cover all ages. (Just be aware of some "knife-throwing")
"WATCH THE CIRCUS" PBS AMERICAN EXPERIENCE DOCUMENTARY
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/films/circus/
I haven't seen this, but it's from the "American Experience" so it should be good-- Probably best for older kids.
We are canceling classes today due to the forecasted heat. Stay cool and stay safe. Classes will start tomorrow, Wed June 25.
It is the first week of classes and it is HOT out. We are watching the forecast for Tuesday and may have to cancel / reschedule the first day of classes due to extreme heat.
