Tell everyone!&nbsp;&nbsp;A wild whodunnit is evolving at Circus Harmony inside City Museum! Someone has stolen the cookie from the cookie jar! Somersaulting sleuths are sure to solve the mystery as they fly through the air and whisk around on one wheel in this year\u2019s annual Circus Harmony show titled&nbsp;<em>Misterioso<\/em>! The title comes from the musical term for playing something in a mysterious way, creating a feeling of intrigue. Circus Harmony\u2019s youth performance troupe will be directed by Artist-In-Residence, Susan Voyticky, a celebrated circus artist, choreographer, and director known for her dynamic performances and innovative creations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Susan\u2019s words, \u201cAs the Artist-in-Residence and guest director, I want to showcase the incredibly talented youth of Circus Harmony and keep these blossoming artists invested in a process that is both fun and demanding. Ideally our journey together will inspire the artists and our audience to the great, small and absurd mysteries that happen throughout our lives. My goal is to assist these young artists in creating a show that combines my love of physical storytelling and a lifelong passion for circus.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Circus Harmony is the internationally renowned social circus school located inside of City&nbsp;Museum. Each year they present hundreds of free mini shows in the third floor circus ring at City Museum. They also teach classes for ages 3 to adult at City Museum and around St. Louis\u2013 including free classes at St. Louis City Recreation Centers. Their Circus Science program is offered at schools and the Urban League, and their international Peace Through Pyramids program brings the group overseas. Once a year they present a full length show with a story line. This year, it is titled&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong><em>Misterioso.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw-480x640.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/MaFId-Kw-600x800.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Circus Harmony is celebrating 25 years as a nonprofit organization!
