NECCA presents the Circus Capstone Project, a culminating performance of aspiring circus professionals at the forefront of American Circus.

A high flying, awe inspiring theatrical circus production exploring cause and effect. This daring show captures the ways in which humans connect to influence, inspire, and irritate one another through space and time. Impetus is the Circus Capstone Project devised by the graduates of NECCA's 3 year professional training program.

For aspiring performers, NECCA’s 3 year ProTrack provides elite acrobatic and aerial training alongside movement and physical theater, instigating a deeper capacity for creativity within circus arts. In their final year, a small group of these accomplished students devise a show for touring, embracing innovation and daring at the intersection of circus, theater, and dance.

In 2020/2021 adjustments were made to continue training despite the COVID pandemic, and students persevered while training in masks and socially distanced until the later protocol was shifted shortly before show creation began.
