ABOUT THE SHOW

Giving communities a chance to join the circus, discover their gifts, and still be home for dinner!


From Kevin O’Keefe’s suitcase an entire circus emerges: tent, band, lights, the boisterous ringmaster Steve Fitzpatrick, the officious Mervin Merkle, the incredible Bumbilini Family, the Magician to the Stars Clyde Zerbini, and Keefer–an innocent trying to runaway and join the circus. However, the most important performers emerge from the audience. Each performance becomes a dialogue between the characters and the audience–a light-hearted collaboration.


Invite the One-Man Circus in-a-Suitcase to your event and give everyone an opportunity to participate in an enthralling, whimsical celebration of the imagination. This show has been performed over 500 times around the globe, for family theater audiences and school assemblies alike.


Don’t take our word for it… Take theirs.

Circus Minimus - The One-Man Circus in-a-Suitcase


“In a one hour period, Mr. O’Keefe and his cast of incredible characters brought us through a marvelous story about a young man who wants to run away to the circus. There was not a moment’s lag throughout the show. Each of our 350 children and 60 adults laughed, applauded and had a roaring good time. My cheeks hurt for a few hours after the performance. This is an exquisitely tight and well-developed show that I would recommend for any group. Mr. O’Keefe is a natural. I will never forget this experience, and our kids are still talking about it.”

–Jackie Sinatra, principal, Marbletown Elementary School, Stone Ridge, NY


“The event was wonderful. All of the children were so engaged and happy. I loved looking at the children’s faces as you were performing. They were priceless. Again, thank you for the assembly.”

–Helen Gurny, art teacher, P.S. 59, NYC
