LOCATION

 

Thursday, June 26, 6:00pm (rain date: 6/27, 6:00pm)

Chuck Harris Park, 3-17 Cross Street

Spring is in the air; and some mischievous fairies have awoken from a
long winter slumber and want to play. Come in and join the fun. You are
invited you to be a spectator at this dazzling display of circus acts
performed in an enchanted garden.

Featuring over twenty beautifully hand-crafted marionettes, The Fairy
Circus is a showcase for turn-of-the-century-style trick puppetry. The
puppets will dance, play instruments, juggle, contort, transform, and
fly through the air with the greatest of ease, all to the best-loved
music of favorite composers.
