The Circus Comes to Town with Cirque Amongus at Tibbits Opera House!
COLDWATER – A surprising combination of comedy, circus skills and audience participation will delight audiences young and old when Cirque Amongus comes to Tibbits Opera House as part of Popcorn Theatre on July 10 and 11 at 10am. Additionally, a hands-on circus workshop will take place after the July 11 performance.
Cirque Amongus offers an immersive circus experience with hands-on programs designed to build self-esteem, develop motor skills and promote teamwork.
