Someone Finally Fused Pink Floyd and Circus Performances

It’s hard to believe this hasn’t happened before in San Francisco of all places, but someone has finally done it: this September 2022, you can watch an intricately choreographed circus show set to Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.” That’s right, September 16-18 at Dance Mission Theatre, while you sit back and enjoy some of the best music ever written, you will simultaneously be wildly entertained by acrobats, aerialists, jugglers and more. It’s the ultimate sensory experience, and it’s SO San Francisco.

The great thing is that this production was 100% created by local Bay Area artists– not a big corporation like Cirque du Soleil– which means a lower ticket price AND an opportunity to support local artists. Produced by Bow & Arrow Circus Theatre Collective, the cast features a select crew of local circus people– Ash Rexford, Bethlayne Hansen, Landyn Endo, Jeremy Vik, Marie Cartier, Andres Lin Fan and Logan Sheehan– all performers who you may have seen hanging from a ceiling or climbing stacks of chairs at Bay Area clubs, theaters and parks.
