Delightful, Ambitious, Quirky, Refreshing, Entertaining

See it if you'd enjoy circus acts on a small stage with wonderful live music and a troupe of performers who give it their all with some BKLYN history.

Don't see it if you are looking for a play with a plot. This is a series of acts that salute Brooklyn and provide a few local stories.

Delightful, Dizzying, Riveting, Masterful, Entertaining

See it if you like circus. 9 fabulous young acrobats make it look easy while miniature Brooklyn monuments twill & light up at the back of the stage.

Don't see it if you dislike loud noises that is sometimes music. This is not a play although it is certainly dramatic.

Charming, Quirky, Entertaining, Fabulous fun

See it if you like Coney Island Sideshow/ Spiegeltent street circus-style acts- simple, low-tech with great live music & the requisite "geeky" MC

Don't see it if you expect Cirque du Soleil caliber professionalism; don't care for "neighborhood-y" acrobatics, balancing & juggling acts Read more

Quirky, Entertaining, Delightful

See it if You enjoy circus with a bit less polish/bit more grit than cirque or other big circus options.

Don't see it if You want a unified piece (more a cabaret with a theme forced on). You want tons of impressive acts (a bit more lyrical, small spectacle)
