This year’s fun-filled themed show is, “Vaudeville!” — a celebration of the grand American tradition of variety entertainment! The show will feature a spectacular lineup of unforgettable acts with amazing acrobats, mystifying magicians, jaunty jugglers, and wondrous wire walkers. The many skills of 30 young circus artists will be on full display under the Big Top.
THE SHOW
“Circus Smirkus is thrilled to bring its award-winning touring youth circus back to Saratoga Springs this summer” said Judy Gaeth, Director of Circus Operations. “Our presenter, the Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs is a great partner filling the tent with Saratogians young and old for the past 12 years. The Saratoga Springs Waldorf School is the home of two of our former ‘Smirkos’, Keenan and Taylor Wright Sanson,” Judy commented.
THE WALDORF SCHOOL OF SARATOGA SPRINGS
“Presenting Circus Smirkus in Saratoga allows us to bring something truly wonderful and extraordinary to the larger community beyond our enrolled families, and that is consistent with who we are as a school, citizen and neighbor,” said Anne Maguire, Administrator for the Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs. “The skill and agility of these young circus performers is inspiring for the children of our community! It demonstrates the power of practice and setting your mind to a task that you will see through to the end. It is collaboration and confidence, very much in the same spirit with which we teach at the Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs.”
Since 1981, the Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs has been educating children from pre-school through the 12th grade. For more information, visit www.waldorfsaratoga.org.
