The annual performance includes the 175 youth performers, 40 staff and a live circus band of 15 adults and teenagers. The Children’s Circus of Middletown has been an annual collaboration between Oddfellows Playhouse Youth Theater and the Middletown Commission on the Arts since 1989. In 2018 the Children’s Circus was awarded the NY Life Foundation’s Excellence in Summer Learning Award.
