Circus Waldissima

Circus Waldissima (founded 1992) is a theatrical youth circus company operated out of Santa Rosa, California, as an after-school program at Summerfield Waldorf School and farm. Founded as a small after-school program with a few children, and a performance at a school function, the circus has since grown to more than three large shows a year with over 100 student participants in the main show, in its own circus tent.
