Shoestring Circus

A little love for the woman behind the floof 🐑💭

Our incredible costumer Shelby took our counting sheep dreams and somehow turned them into these ridiculous, wonderful creatures.
Swipe for a peek behind the scenes, including Shelby’s husband being recruited for the very important job of floof-ball model, and Justin Therrien original drawing that started it all.

Thank you Shelby for taking our weird ideas seriously and making Barb and Gail even floofier and more fun than we imagined. 🤍

Now that our 2026 season has wrapped we can share more images of the show and the surprises we tried to keep special for our audiences!

Over 26,000 people joined us in Dreamland, it was truly an incredible summer. Stay tuned for more photos and videos to celebrate these artists ❤️

Thanks for packing the tent, Port Townsend! If a show is sold-out online feel free to stop by the tent for any last minute seats that open up!

We can’t thank you enough for the warm welcome and amazing audiences! ❤️❤️❤️

SO much love to this cast and crew. We're gonna soak up these last shows ♥️
