Circus Smirkus presents Flare, A Campfire Story: Movie and Live Circus Demo

Join Circus Smirkus on Saturday, August 21 at 6:30PM ET for a live circus demonstration and a showing of the 2021 movie Flare, A Campfire Story, a tale bursting with circus adventure.

Bring your blankets and snacks to the Hyde Community Center in Newton Highlands for a family friendly event! Ever want to walk across a tightwire? Come try circus props in our circus playground at 6:30PM. Then at 7:00PM, enjoy a pre-movie demonstration of live circus from some of our Smirkus troupers. At sundown, settle in for a showing of the 2021 movie Flare, A Campfire Story, created and performed by the 2021 Big Top Tour troupers.

The night is near, and a distant glow of embers can be seen pulsing in the forest. A weary traveler pokes at a pile of glowing coals sending sparks and swirling smoke skyward. One by one, additional hikers arrive in search of warmth, safety, companionship, and peace. As the dark of night engulfs them, they embark on an unforgettable journey of the mind that will change their lives forever.
