One in five people are diagnosed with a mental health disorder, yet only a quarter of them feel they’re met with compassion or understanding. The need for awareness and empathy has never been more urgent. Millennials and Gen Z are reporting higher rates of depression than any generation before them.

​

The circus is more than performance—it’s a community built on acceptance, safety, and inclusion. The artists in this show use their vulnerability as a powerful tool to foster empathy and connection, helping to humanize the mental health struggles that touch all of us in some way.

​

Through movement, storytelling, and courage, we hope this performance not only raises awareness and breaks down stigma but also reminds anyone silently struggling you are not alone.
 

In honor of World Mental Health Day, Artists from diverse backgrounds and disciplines will share performance pieces inspired by personal or witnessed experiences with mental health challenges, underscoring the powerful role art can play in healing.

A portion of the event's proceeds will go to NAMI - NYC Metro
