The Montessori Circus Show is a "self-directed learning hour" of circus acts and vignettes inspired by the artistry of tradition—passed down from one performer to another, from one artist to another, from mother to daughter. There is no ring master; there is no script. The show is an exploration of the desire that comes from within to be and do whatever you want.
Wonders include: doubles trapeze, acrobatics, hula hooping, puppetry, fapets, juggling, and various antics.
"[E]xuberant, technically masterful, and straight-out hilarious, Lollo and Cecilia Grimm create visually stunning physical sculptures wrapped around the trapeze. Salacious and witty, their forms physicalize character and relationship with astonishing technique. Bursts of applause were many, and every one deserved."
