It is nice to be able to be both theatre and circus. It is nice to go into a theatre and be the specialty, and not have to do everything all at once because there are lots of other talented individuals doing things at the same time. They like what we do, and it fit into their vision of a show, and that is how theatres started incorporating our circus arts into stage shows. In addition to our shows, most recently, we have been asked by theatres/directors to help collaborate. We keep adding more and more types of performances to the show. We have done this before and people in New York really enjoyed it. It is for ages 3 to 93, it has something for everyone. In 2010 we started with our show Cirque Le Jazz, which is a family friendly, great American Big Band Songbook and fuses circus arts, musical theatre and vaudeville. 2 Ring Circus is a theatre circus company formed to present Circus Arts in its own way, a Broadway style song and dance with a variety and vaudeville aspects to it. We all have background in the musical theatre and dance world. Kelli Curtin: Could you tell me about 2 Ring Circus?Ģ Ring Circus: We are a four person circus company with a variety of different apparatus, we call ourselves a theatrical circus company. They spoke to me about 2 Ring Circus and what they do, in addition we also discussed the benefit of combining circus arts and musical theatre. I had the privilege to speak with three members of 2 Ring Circus: Ben Franklin, Kenneth Ziegler and Lani Corson. No matter how you catch this group perform, they provide a unique and entertaining experience for all to enjoy. These four have honed their talents to bring circus arts to the stage, whether it is through a stage show such as The Wizard of Oz or through their own productions like Cirque Le Jazz. 2 Ring Circus is composed of four passionate individuals, Joshua Dean, Ben Franklin, Kenneth Ziegler and Lani Corson.
Currently they are performing onstage at the Fulton Theatre in The Wizard of Oz and you may have encountered them throughout Lancaster City performing their art. There has been a lot of buzz in Lancaster recently about 2 Ring Circus.
