Circus Smirkus: Wilderness Wonders
The soundtrack from Circus Smirkus' Wilderness Wonders is now available on CD!
Circus Smirkus, Vermont's award-winning international youth circus, presented an all-new Big Top show in the summer of 2010, continuing a 23-year tradition of bringing joy and magic
to towns all over the Northeast. The traveling youth circus performed 69 shows, from the mountains of Vermont to the shores of Maine, with stops along the way in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and upstate New York. Thirty stars, ages 11 to 18, brought youthful
exuberance and polished skills from all parts of the country and the world. The show was full of exuberant talent and dazzling spectacle, with aerials, acrobatics, high wire,
juggling, trapeze, clowning, an array of brilliant costumes, and live music composed by Tristan Moore.

Children's Dance Theatre: True North
A Children's Dance Theatre production with an original score composed by Tristan Moore, TRUE NORTH tells the story of an epic journey across the ice-bound Arctic territories of Canada.
Far from civilization, in the middle of the vast ice fields of the North, a young child with no memory of her past mysteriously appears. A Pacific Northwest village takes her in and raises her as one of their own. Years later, the child receives a powerful vision that sends her on a quest in search of the answer to the riddle of her true identity. She makes her way northward across land and sea, through the realms of ancient spirits and wild animals, to True North... the home of the elusive Northern Lights.
Upcoming performances:
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5TH AT 7:30 PM
Val A. Browning Center
