Cirque Italia

When: Thu., Sept. 20, 7:30-9:30 p.m. 2018

This traveling circus boasts acrobats, aerialists, death-defying stunts and more, all under a customized tent. What differentiates Cirque Italia from Cirque du Soleil is water — 35,000 gallons of it. Contortionists, clowns, jugglers — even roller skaters — perform on a one-of-a-kind water stage. Don’t let the elephant puppets fool you, this is animal-free entertainment. Think of it as traditional circus arts meets The Shape of Water — minus the sexy fish man.
