Jenna’s Crazy Rockin’ Circus Show all started after a trip to circus camp when she was 17. The camp was two weeks of trapeze, juggling, acrobatics and general clowning around. In her junior year of high school, it seemed to Jenna that everyone was asking what she wanted to do with her life. She had no clue and began answering “I am running away with the circus.” After searching the internet for summer jobs, she stumbled on a camp called “Circus Smirkus,” a feature of the Vermont-based children’s circus. She went for only two weeks, but has always felt that those 14 days changed her life. Immediately after returning from camp she began compiling circus equipment- old, used, new and homemade. Jenna has now been performing circus art for 7 years. She can be found performing at local events and once a month at Kennedy Krieger Institute.
