Circus Imagination will engage the imagination and creativity of children. Prior to each show the Circus Imagination ringmaster tours the fairgrounds and invites children to participate. Colorful costumes and child-friendly direction is given in each act.
The 10-act program features a variety of circus acts from Tina the Tightrope Walker who climbs a make-believe ladder 100 feet in the air to Zazelle the Human Cannonball. No skill or talent is required and the experience leaves children with a strong sense of creativity and resourcefulness.

Circus Imagination is a second generation family owned business.
It all started in 1985 when Greg Hegwer and Criss Raintree decided to runaway and join the circus and travel around the U.S. bringing the joy of performance & circus to children of all ages.
When the couple retired from the traveling circus life, their son Caton took on the ringmaster hat, keeping the family tradition alive.
He married costumier Carolina Raintree-Hegwer, and together they make the impromptu theater of Circus Imagination. Creating an unforgettable experience for children ages 3 and up in the western United States.
