The award-winning Big Apple Circus is a world-renowned presenter of live family entertainment. Its mission is to invigorate the communities it serves with the joy and wonder of classical circus.
Conceived and founded by
Paul Binder to be a leading presenter of live family entertainment and a not-for-profit performing arts institution, Big Apple Circus' nationwide performances and community programs have made its history far-reaching and full.
It all began in Kent, England, in 1974, when American entertainers
Paul Binder and Big Apple Circus co-founder Michael Christensen became juggling partners and took to the street corners of Europe. Their comedic juggling act was a hit, and they soon found themselves on the stage of the prestigious Nouveau Cirque de Paris. They returned home to America in 1976 with a vision: to entertain and improve the lives of millions. One year later, they found a site for the first tent-raising in Battery Park, New York, and went on to create the award-winning, not-for-profit Big Apple Circus.
