Circa reimagines “Swan Lake,” the world’s most romantic ballet, as a circus spectacular—full of the company’s signature physicality, cheeky humor and thoroughly contemporary energy. Be swept away by this tale of swans and hapless princes, s  parkling with quirky touches like a sequinned flipper-wearing duck army and a burlesque black swan. There are sumptuous aerials, jaw-dropping acrobatics and—of course—feathers! Touching, funny and utterly entertaining, “Duck Pond” is a tale of identity and finding your true self.
