Welcome to Cycas Circus!

Cycas Circus is the Far North's first high school circus troupe. The troupe of 25 was formed in 2004 by founding Director Patti Burnheim, a drama teacher from Smithfield State High School.

The students incorporate circus, drama and dance skills with lights, costume and sound to create a unique and entertaining performance.

Trained by local, national and international professionals in weekly workshops and daily rehearsals, the students develop circus and acrobalance skills along with building self-confidence and team work.

In 2007 they participated in the WA International Circus Festival and the UberOz International Circus Festival in 2008. They continue to perform over 80 shows a year for the local community including the monthly Foreshore Fire Nights on the Cairns Esplanade. They are presently preparing for their first full length production to be held at The Tanks Arts Centre in June and are now taking bookings for functions and fetes.

To help support future tours and training, the troupe is looking for sponsors and donations in return for advertising and free performances.

The circus troupe is a group of ordinary kids doing extraordinary things...Experience it for yourself!
