A Chicago circus company in a tent small enough that no seat is far from the ring. Welles Park is the last stop of this year's tour, which marks the company's 20th year. It suits families, and people who want acrobatics in a neighborhood park rather than an arena.
What to expect
A one-ring circus show under a small tent. Seating is bleachers, first come first served, and families can sit on blankets on the ground near the ring.
