One-time free circus performance graces the town with aerial acrobatics, contortionist acts, clowning, and diverse entertainment, happening this weekend
On Saturday, August 16, the New York City Circus Festival will take over Bryant Park from 6pm to 9pm. This annual event is a celebration of circus arts, featuring a diverse lineup of performers that includes Sxip Shirey Sound Action Ensemble, Bindlestiff Family Cirkus, ABCirque, Hybrid Movement Company, Dzul Dance, Company 29, and Minty Fresh Circus.
Monique Martin, the curator and founder of Minty Fresh Circus, has carefully selected these troupes to showcase a wide range of circus arts, from aerial arts to acrobatics, clowning, and more. Each performance promises to be a unique and captivating experience.
Minty Fresh Circus, in particular, is described as a journey through time and space, using circus and dance as forms to explore themes of liberation that only exist through imagination.
The New York City Circus Festival is not just a show, but a celebration of diversity, inclusion, and acceptance. These values are reflected in the performances, which aim to bring together people from all walks of life to enjoy the magic of circus arts.
For those looking for free entertainment in the city, the New York City Circus Festival is one of the best options. After the show, visitors can explore the rest of Bryant Park, which offers a variety of amenities, including a reading room, a lawn for relaxing, and a café.
