Circus in a Trunk

Theater in the Open brings clowning around to a whole new level…Introducing an evening with The Piccolini Trio in Newburyport!

Local theater company, Theater in the Open, is proud to present The Piccolini Trio for a very special evening of clowning, acrobatics, juggling and general zaniness. Following in the tradition of the annual Circus Smirkus stop, this fall the Company is bringing another completely fresh and inventive performing troupe to the area. For one night only on November 23, The Piccolini Trio will be in town for a unique thoroughly entertaining, family-friendly performance.

The Piccolini Trio is an absolute delight to watch. Each member is a highly talented performer in his or her own right. Together, they deliver a unique fusion of contemporary and classic European-style clowning that will appeal to audiences of all ages. With their combination of music, physical comedy, juggling, pantomime and acrobatics, audiences will immediately recognize that they’re seeing something special. Wendy Remington Bowie from nytheater.com writes that the Trio is, “completely endearing, endlessly entertaining and charming.”

On Saturday, November 23, the Trio will perform their critically acclaimed show, “Circus in a Trunk” at 6:00PM at Newburyport City Hall. Tickets are $15 each and $10 for children 12 and under. Children 2 and under are FREE. For tickets, visit Eureka Toys to pay by cash or check, or pay by cash, check or credit card at the door.
