Stuck in Vermont 34: Circus Smirkus

Back


7/1/07: This summer is the 20th anniversary of Circus Smirkus. It all began in the tiny Vermont town of Greensboro when founder Rob Mermin caught the circus bug. What began as a summer break for farm kids has turned into an international extravaganza with contortionists from Mongolia, a hula hooper from Minnesota, and a tightrope walker from Colombia. The kids work hard and when they are not performing, they are behind the scenes making sure everything is going smoothly. During the 3 week rehearsal period they put the show together, develop heightened levels of trust and become a tight knit family. The circus has become an established art form over the past 20 years and Circus Smirkus is a big part of this movement. Their 7 week, 71 show New England tour begins now and runs through August.
