Good afternoon everyone, and welcome to Once Upon a Circus.
Tonight’s performance is about stories—the ones we’re given, the ones we follow, and the ones we choose to rewrite. Our athletes have spent the past several weeks not only learning skills, but stepping into characters, taking risks, and bringing this story to life in their own unique ways.
What you’re about to see is more than a show—it’s creativity, courage, and a willingness to try something new, even when it feels a little outside the lines.
We hope you enjoy the journey, and most of all, we hope you see just how much heart these athletes have poured into every moment.
Thank you all so much for being here and for supporting these incredible athletes.
What you saw today is the result of hard work, bravery, and a lot of trust—trust in themselves, in each other, and in the process. We are so proud of every single performer on this stage.
This show is about stepping outside the lines and creating your own story. That idea comes from people in our lives who encourage us to try, to explore, and to believe we can do more than we think.
So today, I’d like to dedicate this performance to the people who do that for us—especially the moms, and parent figures, who support, encourage, and cheer these athletes on every step of the way. We couldn’t do this without you.
Thank you again for being part of this with us—and we hope you leave feeling just a little inspired to write your own story.
