Ticket Information & Schedule

 

Spring Engagement

Fall Engagement

The Big Apple Circus was founded in 1977 by Paul Binder and Michael Christensen. It was one of the first intimate, 1-ring circuses set under a tent to be a hit in the US. The Big Apple Circus has become a holiday tradition in New York City

Grandma Goes Hollywood is the 28th production of the Big Apple Circus and celebrates the great silver screen spectacles of Hollywood's golden years. Along with the antics of clown star Barry Lubin as 'Grandma,' featured acts include the 7-member Kovgar Troupe high above the circus floor on the flying trapeze, along with featured performances by Masha Garamov on the swinging trapeze; the Anhui Acrobatic Troupe from China who specialize in combining foot juggling with teeterboard acrobatics; and Sergie Akimov, who provides more overhead excitement on the aerial straps

A circus is a light-hearted event, but never more so when ventriloquist Willer Nicondi or clowns Karen and Greg DeSanto are in the ring

Can't have a circus without animals and the Big Apple variety include Yasmine Smart and her Arabian stallions and the dogs trained by Olate Family. All this plus a glorious assortment of supporting performers. It's all hosted by emcee Kathy Halenda
