Sailor Circus Victorious!

The students of the Circus Arts Conservatory’s Sailor Circus Academy present their spring show, “Victorious!” this April 17-19. A beloved tradition on the Suncoast for over 75 years, the Sailor Circus Academy trains over 125 students ages 8-18, who display feats of physical strength, grace, and courage that might initially seem well beyond the abilities of performers so young. Performances of “Victorious!” take place in the Sailor Circus Arena (2075 Bahia Vista St., Sarasota) at 7 p.m. from Thursday, April 17 through Saturday, April 19, with an additional 2 p.m. show on Saturday, April 19.
Celebrating the strength, determination, and perseverance it takes to become a champion – or a Sailor Circus performer -- “Victorious!” will inspire audiences of all ages. Set to a soundtrack of power ballads and rock anthems, the show features over 50 students performing at the highest level on Russian swing, trampoline wall, acrobatic roller skating, bicycle for five, clowning, aerial acts such as silks, hammock, cloudswing, duo straps, and web, and – the traditional closing act – the flying trapeze.
