Fear Circus

Fear Circus is the Taconhy production house's adult-only horror show -- a theatrical descent built for audiences who came to feel something. No safety net. No softening for the kids in the front row. Twisted clowns prowl the aisles. Aerialists drop from a blackened rig. A chainsaw revs in the dark and a spotlight catches whatever happens next. The whole company is dressed for the part -- leather, latex, bone-white face paint, blood that hasn't dried yet. The company tours a limited run of dates. When the lights go down and the tent goes dark, the show is gone until the next leg. If you've waited, you'll know why.
