This circus certainly knows how to bust a move!
Starting May 21 under the Big Top at Cunningham Park, you can enjoy the Big Apple Circus as its international cast of characters performs in “Dance On.” There’s a troupe of monocyclists and lasso twirlers from China; a mind–bending group of Mongolian contortionists; a kinetic collection of Kenyan athletes who defy gravity; a herd of hoofers — twelve miniature horses in an equine chorus line; and an Ethiopian juggler with a lively up–tempo act.
Backed by live music from the Big Apple Circus Band, the performers will be cavorting in the aisles — and you’re sure to be dancing in your seats!
Big Apple Circus in “Dance On” at Cunningham Park [73rd Avenue and Francis Lewis Boulevard, (800) 922-3772], May 21-June 5. Tickets $15. For info, visit www.bigapplecircus.org.
