Cycropia Aerial Dance proudly brings its magical blend of dance and circus arts to the 2025 Orton Park Festival in a performance of spectacular works beneath the stars! Audiences will have two chances to see this FREE, donation-supported performance, Friday, August 29, at 7:30 pm, and Saturday, August 30, at 8:30 pm.
Using single-point trapeze, aerial ladders, straps, stilts, and other custom-designed aerial apparatus, dancers will play with gravity and verticality as they perform on Cycropia’s custom-designed, free-standing aerial rig.
Cycropia has been performing at the Orton Park Festival for over 30 years, creating a Madison community dance tradition. The show is appropriate for all ages.
This performance is a great way to cap off your summer! To learn more about Cycropia, visit www.cycropia.org.
NOTE ON PERFORMANCE SEATING: Bring a blanket and a picnic! Seating is first come, first served. To assure best visibility for all attendees, we ask that you refrain from placing lawn chairs in the area in the front section of seating — from the line of our tech tent to the stage. Stadium seats or low chairs (< 8” off the ground) welcome in this area for guests desiring added support and/or comfort.
DONATIONS: This is a FREE, donation-supported performance. Contributions from our community are vital for the survival of our nonprofit arts organization and will allow Cycropia to continue to share the joy of ariel dance for years to come! There will be a collection during intermission, at both shows, for those wishing to contribute a donation in cash or via Venmo, PayPal, Apple Pay, or credit card. To donate at any time, please visit www.cycropia.org/support.
