Circus Amok!!

Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls, and the rest of us!

Tomorrow we leave for Chestertown, New York, where we'll do intensive rehearsal for about a week, then return for the opening at Riverside Park on Friday, September 1. The show this year is really conceptually together--I think it works well as a piece of theatre, not just as something fun and free to see in the park.

We've got a huge boat, yards of blue fabric water, dancing goats, eight-count 'em, eight!--pogo sticks, a return to the burning building clown act, and much, much more. Oh, the teacups are back, too. And it's all coming to your park, all alive, all real, always FREE.

For those of you who live in New York, you can see our full show schedule here. Or check our website, CircusAmok.org, for more info on the troupe, Amok history, and everything else you'd want to know--you can even make a donation.

For still even more excitement, check out a 5-minute piece on a show from two or three seasons ago on YouTube, here.
