Each year TUBE. gathers our strange, creative and talented friends together for our version The Circus. The show is a whirlwind of variety, complete with visual arts, costumes, music and stage performances ranging from vaudeville to traditional sideshow acts. Performances from new Sacramento residents The Displayed Labors Sideshow and a visit from MOM, made this years Circus freakier than it has ever been before. We fell in love with contortionist Rikki Morehouse, of SacCirque and welcomed back The Handstand Nation for their second time performing at The Circus.
