Big Apple Circus
November 29 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Local troupe Big Apple Circus presents intimate family-friendly shows with clowns, horse-riding dogs, horizontal juggling, aerial duo, flying trapeze and more in a one-ring Big Top tent with comfortable arena style tiered seating. It’s a small venue so pretty much any seat location is great, and there are fun photo ops in the lobby.
Schedule varies week to week; lots of options at all times of day.
