Circus Flora Celebrates 25th Season with VAGABOND ADVENTURES, 6/2-26
April 12, 2011 In celebration of its 25th season, Circus Flora, St. Louis' beloved, one-ring circus presents a brand new show, Vagabond Adventures, June 2 through 26, under the air-conditioned, red-and-white, big top tent in Grand Center. Presented by Edward Jones, the show comes on the heels of Circus Flora's triumph with the St. Louis Symphony in January. Vagabond Adventures is set on the Floating Palace, an actual circus venue that traveled up and down the Mississippi River before the Civil War. This majestic riverboat triggers the season's thrilling caper, picking up where the critically acclaimed Symphony performance left off. "It's been 25 years in the making, and we are pulling out all the stops," said Ivor David Balding, producer and artistic director. "We are especially excited that so many performers who have made this circus what it is today will be back to help us celebrate."
