'The Circus Spectacular'

Come one, come all to New England Center for Circus Arts in Brattleboro for the 16th annual Circus Spectacular, an eye-popping feast of flight-y fun. The flagship fundraising event brings together world-class performers for a weekend of stupendous feats in the high-ceilinged trapezium, including legendary Ringling Bros. ringleader emeritus Eric Micheal Gillett; magician Troy Wunderle; and physical comedian Joel Baker, who performs in the slapstick traditions of Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin. Aerial and acrobatic acts, juggling, and laugh-out-loud clowning by the center’s artists show that the circus arts talent in the Green Mountains is flippin’ incredible.
