Josh Aviner and Lyndsay Magid Aviner of Hideaway Circus present Stars Above, an open-air circus performed under the night sky.

Aiming to present a modern take on the nostalgia and intimacy of early nineteenth century touring circuses, the narrative of Stars Above is centered around a single day in the life of a traveling family troupe. A Hideaway Circus spokesperson says, “The production explores and celebrates our interwoven connections to loved ones, community, and what we’ve lost.” Stars Above aims to combine elements of both contemporary and classical circus while showcasing a cast of American circus performers, ranging from sixth-generation circus acts to individuals from circus schools, and musicians performing original music and reimagined covers.
