Cirque of the Dead

Join the Boston Circus Guild for Cirque of the Dead, an adults-only Halloween circus spectacular!

Cirque of the Dead Immersive Event - Main Image

This year, Cirque of the Dead presents a classic horror anthology, with twisted tales pulled from the shadows of film noir, creature features, and ‘50s-era sci-fi. Stories have power - on the page, on the stage, and in the imagination. The more senses you stir, the more real they feel… and sometimes, they have a way of taking on a life of their own. Monsters, murders, and mysteries this dark don’t like to be contained. So tread carefully - because once a tale begins, there’s no telling how it might end! Doors open 30 minutes before showtime. Runtime is about 90 minutes with a short intermission. This show is 18+ only, due to graphic / disturbing content. If you have specific questions about content, please email ellen@bostoncircusguild.com. Cirque of the Dead is presented by the Boston Circus Guild, with production support from Circus 617.
