The South Shore Music Circus in Cohasset and Cape Cod Melody Tent in Hyannis have family fun under the tent all summer long. See spectacular jugglers, clowns, aerialists, acrobats, princesses, contortionists and more.
 
The Big Apple Circus will be at the Melody Tent on July 23rd at 7 pm. Parents Magazine called the Big Apple Circus “America’s best circus for children”. Come see the show the Washington Post described as a “Jaw Dropping…Awe-Inspiring…a one-ring wonder.”
Big Apple brings talented artists from around the world together under the tent. This event is extra special as the Big Apple Circus developed a program just for the Melody Tent stage!
 
On July 26th The Chinese Golden Dragon Acrobats bring the grace, power and beauty of their 25 century old traditions. Acrobatic acts have evolved throughout the history of China. China is credited with producing some of the best acrobats in the world.
 
For the past 2,500 years, the Chinese acrobats have been practicing, and the Golden Dragons have been perfecting stunts such as…

  • Hoop diving
  • Unicycle bowl flip
  • Rolling balance contortionist
  • Lion and Dragon acts
  • And more!
You will be delighted and amazed by the traditional contortionists and equilibrists – practitioners of the fine art of balancing.  Introduce your children to this timeless and classic art form.
 
Our youngest patrons will be captivated by new, musical twists on old stories with Kaleidoscope Theatre’s presentations of Goldilocks, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Cinderella. Children’s theatre productions are Wednesdays at 10:30 in Cohasset and Thursdays at 11 in Hyannis. These shows are ideal for kids ages 2-6. Sing along and help the actors create the stories you know and love.
