Performance Creation

In this Performance Creation class, intermediate and advanced circus students will collaboratively build a cohesive show from the ground up! Over the course of 7 weeks, students will devise group acts, build transitions, and have the option of working on solo/duo/trio acts with the guidance of an experienced coach. Students will have the opportunity to expand their breadth of circus knowledge as group acts will include a variety of circus disciplines including aerial and ground skills.
This class cost includes the price of Open Studio once a week where students will be able to independently practice and develop their acts. Consistent attendance is key as we’re creating collaboratively! Students are required to be a part of the final performance on August 23rd. Optionally, there is also the potential to perform at the Amherst Block Party in September (date TBC).
All classes at SHOW focus on vocabulary retention, interpersonal life skills, and having fun in a safe environment. Circus is a great way to increase self-esteem, have fun, get in shape, improve focus and learn skills that will translate to every aspect of your life. Circus for Fun, Circus for Life.
