The Big Apple Circus presents the World Premiere of Dream Big at Dulles Town Center near Washington DC this fall. For 34 years the Big Apple Circus, New York’s original one-ring circus, has been entertaining audiences of all ages under its Big Top by presenting world-class circus artistry where no seat is more than 50 feet from the ring. Let your imagination soar and summon the most amazing acts — A juggler with a suit to fit his sweet feats of fancy handiwork! A mechanical doll who comes alive in a sinuous balancing act! Spirited horses, frolicsome dogs, and a capybara and porcupine to perk up the sawdust party! Audacious acrobats who astound with athletic grace! Comical conjurors with magical moments of grand illusion! The aerial daring of the trapeze flyers! A singing Ringmistress and the Big Apple Circus Band creating the ringing melodies of memories to last! And Grandma, apogee of comical aspiration and mirthful joy!
