At the edge of Chicago, nestled on the shores of Lake Michigan, there is a waystation for the dead. Every night, the newly-departed travel through the city to the Station, guided by its lighthouse. There, they reckon with their lives, before stepping aboard a boat to go beyond. Nera has spent decades watching her father—the ferryman of the dead—sail across the lake, each night just like the last. But tonight, something is wrong.

Der Nachtzirkus meets The Greatest Showman. J. R. Dawsons funkelndes Debüt um einen magischen Zirkus verzaubert die Hörer:innen weltweit. Wenige Jahre nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg zieht eine Truppe von Zirkusartisten durch den Mittleren Westen der USA. Ihre Manege ist nicht groß, doch ihre Talente sind mehr als außergewöhnlich: Odette, eine Trapezkünstlerin, kann Krankheiten und Verletzungen heilen. Mauve sagt die Zukunft voraus. Und Rin vermag durch die Zeit zu reisen. Zu dritt versuchen sie mit dem Zirkus, anderen übernatürlich Begabten ein Zuhause zu bieten, Sicherheit und eine Familie.

Ringmaster—Rin, to those who know her best—can jump to different moments in time as easily as her wife, Odette, soars from bar to bar on the trapeze. And the circus they lead is a rare home and safe haven for magical misfits and outcasts, known as Sparks. With the world still reeling from World War I, Rin and her troupe—the Circus of the Fantasticals—travel the midwest, offering a single night of enchantment and respite to all who step into their Big Top. But threats come at Rin from all sides.

Ringmaster – Rin, to those who know her best – can jump to different moments in time as easily as her wife, Odette, soars from bar to bar on the trapeze. With the scars of World War I feeling more distant as the years pass, Rin is focusing on the brighter things in life. Like the circus she’s built and the magical misfits and outcasts – known as Sparks – who’ve made it their home. Every night, Rin and the Fantasticals enchant a Big Top packed full with audiences who need to see the impossible.
