High Mowing School’s seventh- and eighth-graders will present “The Hilltop Circus with a Chance of Meatballs” Thursday, Feb. 16, at 4 p.m.; Friday, Feb. 17, at 6:30 p.m.; and Saturday, Feb. 18, at 1 p.m. at the school, 77 Pine Hill Drive in Wilton.

The performances feature middle-schoolers showcasing their circus skills such as juggling, acrobatics and unicycling as they put their own spin on the children’s story “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.” In a collaborative working environment, the students choose skills they want to learn and choreograph a skit.  

The 2023 Hilltop Circus is open to students, families, alumni and community members. Bring a donation to Wilton’s Open Cupboard Food Pantry and get a free bag of popcorn.

Suggested donation is $10 for adults, $5 for children.
