What do Shakespeare's comedies and the Circus have in common? Come and find out as we explore the greatest playwright in the English language with world-class circus artists. Shakespeare’s Circus is a four-day mid-winter break camp for students, presented by Seattle Shakespeare Company and the ZinZanni Institute for Circus Arts.

Through a series of workshops with local artists from the Shakespeare Company and members of the international cast of Teatro ZinZanni, campers will learn the basics of clowning, acrobatics, and stage combat in the context of Shakespeare’s characters and plays. There will be an open class for parents to come watch on Friday starting at 2:00 p.m.
