 This spring, the Sailor Circus Academy is proving that big things really do come in small packages.

The 67th annual Sailor Circus Spring Performance of the Greatest “Little” Show on Earth will feature more than 100 students as they showcase the unique skills they learned in the academy’s intensive after-school program.

The performers range from ages 8-18, with an even wider range of talents, including acrobatics, high wire, unicycle riding, and more.

 “It’s been an exceptional year for the Sailor Circus Academy,” said Courtney Wyatt, Circus Arts Manager. “Our students are training at a pre-professional level and their dedication and commitment to circus training is very apparent when watching them perform.”
