Original poster art by Leah

About the show: Looking to showcase their hometown through the sparkling lens of acrobatics, aerial artistry, and juggling, SANCA’s youth performance troupe Cirrus Circus presents Seattle Unfrozen: Seeing Our City Through Circus. The eleven members of Cirrus Circus, aged 14 to 18, take a family of out-of-towners on a heartfelt drive through the emerald city, inviting the audience to take a fresh look at the streets they know by heart. While flipping, twisting, and contorting through landmarks such as the Fremont Troll and Pike Place Market, after sharing a cup of coffee and complaining about the rain, the Seattle freeze might just melt away, bringing everyone in the theater into a truly spectacular celebration of community, joy, and the city we call home.

Appropriate for all ages. Approximately 60 minutes.

Adult tickets: $20 in advance and $25 at the door
Youth tickets: (17 and under) $15 in advance and $18 at the door

Performers: Cirrus Circus, SANCA’s teen performance troupe. Learn about Cirrus here.
