The Midnight Circus: Stilettos, Circus, and Soul at Northlight Theatre

Chicago Tribune - Highly Recommended

"...Julie Greenberg, Jeff Jenkins, their performing street-pooch Lola, and their descriptively named Pretzel Girl, Hoop Girl, Wire Girl, Karate Guy, Trapeze Punk and Strong Man all have shown up in Skokie, doing a self-deprecating, custom-designed show for the Northlight Theatre. It's a blast."

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...Most play their gigs for laughs, so there's none of the stultifying reverence sometimes reserved for circus feats. Mitchell J. Fain is killing as Northlight's supposed representative; Mars Williams's acid-jazz group Liquid Soul provides the inventive accompaniment."

Time Out Chicago - Recommended

"...Some of the strange unions do surprisingly well, such as when the sequined Billings purrs a sultry tune while the band’s “Boy Elroy” accompanies her with his miked beatboxing. It shouldn’t work, but really does. In that way, husband-and-wife team (and company founders) Jenkins and Greenberg have created something akin to old-school vaudeville, where the charm lies precisely in its disjointed mishmash."

ChicagoCritic - Recommended

"...The Midnight Circus is a quick paced, musically rich mini-extravaganza that is audience and kid friendly. The closeness of Northlight Theatre’s thrust stage and stadium seating adds to the power of the show."
