SELBYVILLE, Del. — The Freeman Stage at Bayside will kick off its ninth season with a performance by The Best of Acrobats of Cirque-tacular at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 28.
Featuring an ever-changing cast of elite aerialists, acrobats, contortionists, jugglers, specialty acts, world-record holders and indescribable feats, this family friendly event will delight guests of all ages. While admission is free for the show, patrons should bring their own chairs.
In addition to the public performance, more than 7,700 local students will attend performances of The Acrobats of Cirque-tacular May 24-26 as part of the Joshua M. Freeman Foundation’s arts in education program.
The Acrobats of Cirque-tacular bound from one breath-taking, death-defying feat of acrobatic dare-devilry to another. Muscle-popping, mind-boggling artistry and athleticism will charm and awe the audience. Critics hail the performers as mesmerizing, incredible and truly impressive — cutting edge leaders of the new American vaudeville movement.
“We are proud to continue to be a vessel for the arts and present memorable experiences for the community at The Freeman Stage at Bayside,” said Patti Grimes, executive director of the Joshua M. Freeman Foundation. “The high energy arts experience of The Acrobats of Cirque-tacular is not only an exciting way to kick off our 9th season, but it’s also the perfect offering for the students, local families and visitors over Memorial Day weekend.”
Regular weekly performances will continue on June 17 with a performance by the Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra.
