Wisconsin Youth Company presents the 9th annual

Celebrating Youth!

Sunday, January 27, 2008

Monona Terrace

11 am - 5 pm

Suggested Donation: $1-2/person

 

The 9th annual youth arts & performance event features four stages of youth performances, activity areas, and a finale circus performance by youth!  It's our third year in collaboration with Circus World Museum so look for fabulous circus wagons and memorabilia again!

 

End the day with the Finale Circus under the Virtual Big Top!
Be amazed and thrilled as the circus comes to town!  The Other Worldly Circus will feature many area youth representing a variety of organizations and groups all coming together to perform for you in an amazing production in the style of Cirque du Soleil.  It's an arts circus - featuring aerialists, dance, theatrics, unicyclists, stilt walkers and much more!  Groups of youth have been working all fall to produce their acts for this fabulous finale.  It will take you to another world!

 

 

This year is about stimulating the World of Imagination!
Come visit “worlds” outside your usual experience.  You'll see lots of cultural performances from around the world.  Maybe you'll be fascinated by the other worlds in outer space or captivated by the world of fantasy.

Join us for an outstanding day of creative fun your family won't soon forget. 

A youth event like no other - by youth, for youth.  Interactive, experiential, fun for all ages!

 

 

"Why circus? Because it is irresistible; it speaks to the senses and becomes the substance of dreams.  It is an excellent medium for spreading social change because it comes in through the side door, speaking the universal language of laughter and wonder while stirring our thoughts with new perspectives.” Wise Fool New Mexico
