The Vespertine Circus is a small collection of young, ambitious oddballs on a quest to spread joy and absurdity. Inspired by the golden age of traveling family circuses, the Oakland, Calif.-based troupe masterfully mixes storytelling and comedy with their high-flying acrobatics and outlandish shenanigans. At the Theater at the Children's Creativity Museum, Vespertine Circus presents Important Business, their latest original production. Recommended for children ages 4 and older, it's part circus, part office comedy and all high-energy fun. The kid-friendly and grown-up approved performance is packed with acrobatics, juggling, clowning, aerial-artistry and dance. You've never had this much fun watching people work at the office!
