Ringmaster
Matt Fantastic
Join our ringmaster as he introduces you to a world of circus magic. His whimsical banter will guide you on this journey of joy, wonder, and amazement! Plus, he has a few of his own tricks up his sleeves...

Show of Hands
Reno
A dramatic show of strength and prowess. He will start with some floor work, then some hand balances on one cane, then two, then one cane taller than the other, and finally the canes at their maximum height with various handstand shapes and moves.

Talking is Overrated
Laura & Danielle
Much like children, Mimes exaggerate their thoughts, emotions, and desires to the fullest. This piece is no different. When the music strikes the mimes must choose to share, steal, or walk away. The rest you will have to come see to find out.

To Be Free

Rollin’ in Technicolor
Sol Aura
The digital age presents a world of technicolor at our fingertips, and this piece electro-swing skates into it! Luminous circles of color multiply, divide, and glide in harmony with their 8 wheeled companions below. This innovative performance expands on fundamental geometries for a refreshing twist on circus arts.

Slumber Slump
Selysa Love & Chris
A riveting performance by two acrobats who have definitely gotten enough sleep. Moony is shuffled, slung, and catapulted around stage by Sunny as they captivate with jaw dropping stunts. Okay fine, maybe only one of them is well rested. Do you think the audience will notice?

About the Venue
The Historic Colonial Theatre
This local performing arts theater has been around since the early 1940's, and has been cared for by the Santillan family for generations. Much of the theater has been preserved to its original charm. The atmosphere is grand, yet comforting. As soon as we saw it, we knew this was the perfect place for That Circus Show - appreciating vintage craft through a modern lens.
For decades, The Colonial Theatre has been a Sacramento community hub for the performing arts, from live theater, music, and film, to pro wrestling and boxing!
