Yoga pizza party with Kate McKinnon shows circus is alive and well!

Posted on January 19, 2018 by Marci

Circus is alive and well in the U.S., and one sign is that more DFC alums than ever have been performing circus arts in the ring and on stage in the past year (e.g., CirqueUs, Pippin national tour, Circus Harmony, Circus Smirkus, among others), and another is that circus arts are being featured more and more in major motion picture productions and commercials. In case you missed it, here is the hilariously generous Kate McKinnon trying to share her pizza with a contorting Marci Diamond : https://www.ispot.tv/ad/A7yr/mastercard-masterpass-yoga
