Circus Amok is a New York City based circus-theater company whose mission is to provide free public art addressing contemporary issues of social justice. Founded in 1989, the company combines traditional circus techniques with dance, life-size puppetry, music old and new, and dramatic monologues creating new meanings for circus while continuing to entertain crowds of all ages in city streets, gardens, parks, and playgrounds.
 Circus Amok performances prove that diverse audiences can join us in envisioning a more empowered life of community interaction while enjoying a queer celebratory spectacle.
