Braver than a Bear: Women's Circus End of Year Cabaret 2024
Event description
Fierce. Bold. Courageous. Hairy? Welcome to Braver than a Bear, the 2024 Women’s Circus Member Cabaret! Directed by the award-winning Malia Walsh of Circus Trick Tease (Werk It, CHEER), Braver than a Bear explores themes of bravery, strength, and resilience dished up with an unforgettable showcase of circus and buffoonery!
Witness a diverse cast of Women’s Circus members and trainers as they take to the air and stage with inspiring acts of courage and skill. High flying aerials, dexterous prop manipulation and hilarious clown antics, this show will make you laugh, cry and perhaps even join a circus class yourself.
With special guest performances every night, bar open and an EPIC raffle with so many goodies to be won, it’s no wonder these cabarets sell out every year. Whole family welcome, join us for an unmissable celebration!
