People traveled from far and wide to attend the awesome celebration for Circus Kumarani’s 21st birthday at Dargaville High School!
We had an amazing day filled with workshops in the gym from some talented circus professionals. Workshops ranged from unicycling and diabolo, to hoop and juggling, and even more!
Across the school in the hall we had a large display of pictures, newspaper clippings and other memories from the past 21 years. Three TV screens showed videos from circus shows old and new, and we even had a VHS player playing some of the earliest circus recordings from the beginning of Kumarani!
At lunch everyone was brought together for a shared potluck, people chatted, reunited, and shared memories.
We finished the day off with a show at 5pm. Many amazing performers dazzled the stage with acts from the past and acts from the present. The show was a mix of youth and adults, students and instructors, who all came together to show their talent and love for circus.
