Mulled Wine Supernova: A Chappell Roan Holiday
Saturday December 7, 2024
In celebration of our lord and savior, Chappell Roan, we’ll be casually serving hot toddies to go in a Mulled Wine Supernova just in time for the holidays!
Sky Candy shows are a big part of our overall company mission of “circus is for every body”.
In all of our performances, you’ll find our stage filled with diverse bodies ranging in size, age, ability, gender expression, racial background, and lived experiences. We are proud to offer a safety-minded, inclusive artistic outlet for folks from many backgrounds to share the same stage and tell their stories through aerial and circus arts. With shows and showcase themes ranging from the deeply profound to the deeply silly (and sometimes things that combine the two), we welcome audiences to run away and join us in this adventure!
2024/25 Season
Mulled Wine Supernova, December 7, 2024 at 8pm - In celebration of our lord and savior, Chappell Roan, we’ll be casually serving hot toddies to go in a Mulled Wine Supernova just in time for the holidays!
Twilight, February 2025 - While the Twilight saga is canonically heterosexual story, it has been embraced by the LGBTQIA+ community (in part thanks to out and proud lead, Kristen Stewart) as a “gay allegory”. We’re excited to be part of this story’s queer renaissance and reimagining, bringing sparkly vampires, critiques of late-stage capitalism, and overcoming repression and oppression to the air - a perfect show for Valentine’s Day!
Dungeons & Drag Show, June 2025 - Join our Game Master/host as they lead our performers through a world of magic, mythical beasts, and an ever-evolving, partially scripted, partially improvised aerial and circus show that can go almost anywhere depending on the luck of the D20.
Jurrasic Parque, October 2025 - In the grand tradition of doing un-hinged aerial adaptations of pop culture icons, we are excited to bring you our dramatic, high flying, high brow take on the 90s classic Jurrasic Park, in the style of a Cirque du Soleil show. Yes, we also have no idea what we’re doing and we can’t wait to share it with you!
