Twelve signs. One sky. All circus.


Step into the cosmos with Legends of the Night Sky, a breathtaking aerial and circus experience from Circus Scorpius—winners of KC Fringe Festivals “Best of Fest” in 2023 and 2024. In this celestial journey, myth and movement intertwine as twelve vivid vignettes bring to life the ancient stories behind the zodiac constellations.

From the fierce strength of Leo to the delicate balance of Libra, each act explores the mythological roots of the zodiac signs through mesmerizing aerial performances, acrobatics, contortion, juggling, and dance. High about the stage, aerialists soar as gods and monsters, heroes and lovers, weaving the lore of the stars with gravity-defying grace.

Whether it’s the duality of Gemini depicted through synchronized partner acrobatics or the watery depths of Pisces captured in a dramatic aerial sling routine, every vignette invites the audience to rediscover the timeless tales taht have lit our skies for millennia.

Blending narrative, movement, and powerful visuals, Legends of the Night Sky is both a spectacle and a storybook—told not on pages, but in the air. This immersive, family-friendly production celebrates the wonder of myth and the artistry of circus, transporting audiences beyond the earthly realt and into the magic written in the stars.

Come witness the myths come alive. The night sky awaits!
