Hideaway Circus Canvas Sky Performance

Hideaway Circus flips into Barefoot Acres with their all-new, captivating outdoor show, Canvas Sky, from Tuesday, September 10th, through Wednesday, September 11th!

Hideaway Circus, a new kind of American circus, is bringing Canvas Sky to Fountain Inn, SC with showtimes scheduled for Tuesday, September 10th, through Wednesday, September 11th . This all-new outdoor show will stop at Barefoot Acres as part of its much-anticipated 35-week journey across 22 states. This latest production from the award-winning Hideaway Circus team is the perfect blend of circus nostalgia with a contemporary storyline, all set to the backdrop of original music. Think popcorn, cotton candy, and clowns fused with worldclass acrobatics and a gripping plot, all taking place under the vast canopy of the sky and stars. The production is an immersive sensory experience that transcends boundaries and transports audiences of all ages to new realms of wonder and delight.

Hideaway Circus’s co-founder, Josh Aviner, shared how this event is “…unlike any other circus! We bring the world’s best acrobats and performers together in this ensemble to create a truly captivating show. The picturesque, open-air venues we travel to add to the beauty of our spectacle, making each stop a one-of-a-kind experience that guests will never forget. We implore people from every generation to come out and see Canvas Sky and (re)ignite their childhood wonder.”

Tickets for Hideaway Circus’s local presentation of Canvas Sky are available online at https://www.hideawaycircus.com.

Canvas Sky follows the story of a circus troupe where the clown struggles to ‘fit in’ and find his voice. He gets a little help from a friend, who embraces what makes them wonderful and unique. This narrative unfolds the way circuses were originally intended to, with daring artists performing below the starry sky, on a custom-built stage and aerial rig. Thus, the setting offers a unique open-air experience that evokes the charm of boutique, touring circuses from centuries past.

The fearless and agile artists, whose accolades rival the stars themselves, have come from all corners of the world, including Switzerland, Germany, Holland, Argentina, and the US, to perform with Hideaway Circus’s critically acclaimed shows. Guests can expect to see unparalleled skills in this cast performed by …

  • Aerial artists with experience spanning from Cirque du Soleil to the dazzling stages of Las Vegas, whose feats promise to transport audiences to ethereal heights with cloud-high stunts.
  • A three-time World Juggling Champion, who holds eight juggling world records and clinched the coveted #1 spot in the 2023 Juggling World Champions!
  • Masters of the teeterboard, whose harmonious blend of strength, precision, and comedic flair guarantees an exhilarating rollercoaster of thrills and laughter.
  • And clowns that craft an unforgettable experience with boundless wit, leaving audiences chortling, sore in the stomach, and hungry for more of their comedic genius.

This reimagined, nostalgic circus production was crafted by Hideaway Circus’s innovative founders, Josh & Lyndsay Aviner, who have orchestrated entrancing productions that seamlessly merge storytelling with physical artistry, such as New York Times’s Critics Pick theatre show Beyond Babel. Their circus is bound by three generations of family members and strengthened by award-winning talents whose combined expertise ignites the stage with unparalleled innovation. From the masterful compositions that set the perfect sonic landscape to the dazzling lighting design and enchanting storylines, Hideaway Circus’s productions continue to push the boundaries of circus and performance art, capturing the hearts of audiences across the continent.

Lyndsay Aviner, co-founder of Hideaway Circus, expressed, “We draw people in with awe-inspiring acrobatics and our memorable score, while captivating them with this riveting story of self-discovery. Whether you’re 9-months or 90-years-old, Canvas Sky will remind you that you are never truly alone and that friends can come from the unlikeliest places. This show will embrace you like a warm hug, and we welcome people from across the region to come out for a night of fun, laughs, and long-lasting memories.”
