ABOUT PRESCOTT CIRCUS THEATRE: Now in its 41st year, the Prescott Circus Theatre (PCT) is a nationally recognized performing arts education program for Oakland youth. PCT offers safe environments that challenge Oakland youth, through circus arts training, to develop the skills and confidence to thrive on stage, in school, and in life. This is accomplished through no-cost school and community programs for over 300 Oakland youth each year. Performing Company members from Prescott, where the program began, perform and make appearances at as many as 40 Bay Area events each year. The summer program is funded, in part, by Oakland Fund for Children and Youth, California Arts Council, Port of Oakland, and the West Davis and Bergard Foundation.
