As CircEsteem celebrates its 12th year as Chicago’s largest youth circus, we’ve had the honor of working with thousands of kids from all around Chicago, in addition to many refugee youth who are new to the United States. CircEsteem’s mission of uniting youth from diverse racial, cultural, and economic backgrounds and helping them build self-esteem and mutual respect through the practice of circus arts is the guiding force behind this show.

CircEsteem’s Winter Circus is directed by Orlene and Carlo Gentile, CircEsteem’s Artistic Directors. Together, Orlene & Carlo have been teaching and directing circus programs for the past fifteen years.

CircEsteem’s Winter Circus promises to excite and delight audiences of all ages and is the perfect affordable outing for those seeking a fun wintertime activity for families, schools, groups and friends. Proceeds benefit CircEsteem’s free afterschool tutoring program HomeWork & CircusWork.
