Cannonball has doubled down on offering something for everyone this year. As the size of the hub has exploded, so has the hub's ability to showcase programming for younger audiences. Philadelphia Fringe Festival goers of all ages will find a treasure trove of back-to-back circus, dance, theatre, puppetry, music, and interactive installations all month long.
As usual, the family-focused New Victory Theater was packed with kids the afternoon this reviewer took in the charms and delights of Cirque Mechanics' 42FT-A MENAGERIE OF MECHANICAL MARVELS, but you won't need the little ones around to have a great time at their display of strength, acrobatics and humor that's small in size but big on personality.
Bindlestiff Family Cirkus, New York City's acclaimed variety arts ensemble, returns to the Connelly Theater (220 East 4th Street, New York City) with an all-new production, "Brooklyn Abridged," which combines history, humor and heart with an eclectic cast and crew showcasing circus artistry, original live music, and live analog projections into intertwined vignettes that tell the story of the borough and the citizens who live, work, and play there. This limited engagement runs from May 30 - June 9, 2019. Tickets are on sale now.
