A Wild West segment is the latest addition to the popular Kelly Miller Circus, which returns to Vernon Hills Sept. 16-18. Performances are 4:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Friday, 2 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. Saturday, and 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday at the Westfield Hawthorn Mall, Route 60 and Milwaukee Ave.
“We’re going to take people out West,” said General Manager Jim Royal. “We’ve got a champion rope-spinner, an aerial ballet and a dancehall theme.”
All the favorite attractions are back — plus some new performers. “It wouldn’t be the circus without our three elephants,” Royal said. “We have a new tiger trainer who’s got an amazing act, and jugglers, acrobats, aerialists, clowns — everything that makes a circus so much fun.”
Tickets are $10 in advance, $6 for children at the Vernon Hills Village Hall, the Vernon Hills Park District’s Sullivan Center and the Hawthorn Mall Information Desk; $15 and $7 at the door.
