For over 70 years, students involved with the Circus Arts Conservatory’s Sailor Circus program have amazed audiences with an incredible spectacle of youth circus arts. In “Season’s Greetings,” audiences near and far will get to see 45 young athletes – ages 8-18 – flip, fly and soar to new heights in their annual holiday production. Jared Walker, creative director for the Sailor Circus who is now entering his third year with the CAC, has conceived a traditional show based on holiday greeting cards. "I wanted to keep with a more traditional circus show. We all need a little familiar and some comfort after such a difficult year,” Walker said. “The circus has always been a great place for families, no matter their background or how they celebrate the holidays. We just want to celebrate with all of them and wish them the best for the season and the coming year."   “Season’s Greetings” runs from Saturday, December 26 through Wednesday, December 30 in the Sailor Circus Arena. Showtimes are 2pm and 7pm on Saturday and Monday, 1 and 6pm on Sunday, and 7pm on Tuesday and Wednesday. Live tickets are $20-$30, and digital tickets are $25.
