I will be directing the Berkshire Children’s Circus this summer from July 27 through August 15. Warren Bacon has been the director for the past 3 years and before that he was the aerialist coach for 2 years.
Although I cannot begin to come close to Warren’s experience I hope that as a group we can have a lot of fun and still put on a great show.
I already have seen or spoken with some of the circus kids and they are pretty excited about this years edition. I actually ran into Josh Harrington and his dad John at the Bread and Jam ski race at Notchview ( my apologies John for not recognizing you in your race clothes ).
Tammy Keeney has taken over for Dick Hamilton as Camp Administrator and she has a bunch of experience in circus. Note : she will be able to direct the director.
Bob Goode will be back and he promises to bring a louder whistle. As far as other staff, that is still up in the air but I will keep you posted.
I will also be working with Sean Fagan and Circus Theatricks at a slew ( what is a “slew” ? ) of camps around Albany.
Here are those dates :
1] The Sand Lake Arts Center July 6 – 10
2] Hudson Valley Community College July 13 – 17
3] Colonie Youth Center August 24 – September 4
( don’t forget the swim suits )
