A True Throwback to the Golden Age of Circus—with a Modern Twist
Twisted Whisker Sideshow is more than a performance—it’s an experience. We blend the magic of old-world sideshows with the energy and creativity of contemporary circus arts. Our performances are designed to transport audiences into a world of curiosities, oddities, laughs, and jaw-dropping feats.
Whether you want a family-friendly spectacle, a spooky late-night thrill, or a custom-themed performance for your unique event, we’ve got you covered.
Featured Acts and Attractions
🔥 Fire Performance
Expect daring feats of flame manipulation, including fire eating, fire spinning, and choreographed routines that light up the night. Our fire acts are safe, fully insured, and totally mesmerizing.
🩸 Glass Walking & Bed of Nails
Experience the tension and thrill of classic sideshow stunts as performers walk barefoot across real broken glass or recline calmly on a bed of nails. Equal parts danger and drama, these acts are a crowd favorite.
🎩 Magic
Our magicians perform a uniquely bizarre style of magic that is both vintage and visceral. Expect unusual illusions, creepy curiosities, and the unexpected, all delivered with theatrical flair.
🎪 Juggling
High-energy juggling acts with pins, fire torches, and unexpected props. These routines are fast-paced, fun, and filled with surprises.
🤡 Clowns—with a Twist
These aren’t your party-store clowns. Twisted Whisker’s clowns are mischievous, stylish, and just a little chaotic. Think vintage circus charm meets playful madness—equal parts comedy and character.
