Alternacirque 1001 Arabian Nights @ Earlewood Park Amphitheater
Jun 8 @ 12:00 am – 1:45 am

The famous and beloved Arabian fairy tales come to life via circus arts courtesy of Alternacirque, Columbia’s homegrown professional circus company. Alternacirque was very fortunate to have renowned underground circus director and performer Armitage Shanks on board to direct this sometimes beautiful, sometimes loony tunes full-length show of intrigue, fantastical creatures, and strong women characters. Tales popular with Western audiences, including the plight of Scheherezad, the Voyages of Sinbad, and Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, are told along with a few more obscure ones, like The Talking Bird, and the Tale of Janshah. This show is 100% family friendly.

1001 Arabian Nights debuted in January as a part of the 5th Annual Festival of Doom to sold out crowds. The show has expanded to include new talent, and will incorporate live fire performance this go-round. Housed in the spacious Earlewood Park Amphitheatre on North Main Street, we encourage you to bring picnic blankets and make yourself at home. The show lasts 90 minutes with one 20-minute intermission.
