Film Debut: “Runaway Circus” at Nyack Center
from: nyacknewsandviews.comFeb 10,2012
See the story of 12 teenagers who “run away to the circus” and join Nyack’s Amazing Grace Circus in this short documentary by film maker Angela Snow on Wed Feb 15 at 7p in the Nyack Center. Behind the tent in the scorching sun and humidity, the teenagers learn the extreme physical skill and dedication required to put on a show. After the nerves and butterflies, they will experience for the first time, what the other performers speak of, that shinning moment in the ring. Overcoming every hurdle imaginable, from all different backgrounds, ages, and cultures, Circus performers unite under a little big top to capture the imagination of young and old.
