Oddfellows Playhouse is registering now for the winter/spring session of the Connecticut School of Circus Arts. Well-known artists Dic Wheeler of Artfarm and Heidi Kirchoffer and Joel Melendez of Matica Arts teach this class of circus skills for ages 12 and up from Feb. 1 to May 22. No previous circus experience is necessary.
The winter/spring session of the Connecticut School of Circus Arts is part of a year-round program of training in juggling, stilting, acrobatics, unicycling, and clowning. Students are introduced to all the skills and then can specialize for a more in-depth experience. Toward the end of the class, students will rehearse for public performances on May 21 and 22. Classes are held at Oddfellows Playhouse on Mondays from 6:30-9:30 p.m. Tuition for the winter/spring session is $250, and the class is limited to 30 students. Full and partial scholarships are available.
Oddfellows Playhouse is located at 128 Washington Street, Middletown. More than just a performing arts program, Oddfellows aims to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by using the arts as tools to build self-confidence, communication skills, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation for the richness and diversity of the world in which we live.
