7/9/14: Circus Smirkus’ 27th Annual Big Top Tour is underway as 30 troupers aged 10-18 travel across New England bringing the circus to towns big and small. 9 of those performers wear red noses and are particular favorites with the young crowds.

You can catch Circus Smirkus in mid-August when they return to Vermont for shows in Montpelier and Greensboro.

Music: Composed exclusively for Circus Smirkus by Tristan Moore
