Four of Circus Harmony's Flying Children Land at Cirque du Soleil!

ST. LOUIS - EntSun -- "Circus didn't change my life. It saved my life," says Melvin Diggs, a St. Louis native who is currently touring the world with Cirque du Soleil. Melvin and three other young urban St. Louisans are all alumni of St. Louis' only social circus school, Circus Harmony. In addition to Melvin, three other Circus Harmony students are touring with the renowned Cirque du Soleil!!

Social circus is an intervention tool used to work with youth at risk. For Circus Harmony it means they use the teaching and performing of circus arts to motivate social change by building character in individuals and building bridges between communities. Their performance troupe, the St. Louis Arches, was founded in 1989.  Over the years, the students have become so adept at advanced circus arts that Circus Harmony is now also known as one of the leading pre-professional circus schools in America.

Three young men, Melvin Diggs, Sidney 'Iking' Bateman, and Terrance 'T-Roc' Robinson are all touring with Cirque du Soleil's show, Luzia. Currently in Vancouver, they next go to London and Moscow. Chauncey Kroner, is in Montreal rehearsing for Cirque du Soleil's new holiday show, 'Twas the Night Before which opens in Chicago  and then in NYC .
