Garden Bros Nuclear Circus is coming to Overland Park at the end of the month and will set up at Oak Park Mall.
Dubbed the “World’s Largest Circus Under The Biggest Big Top On Earth,” the century-old circus will host four shows at the mall between April 27 and 30.
The show is called “Humans Gone Wild”

- Acts in the fast-paced, 100-minute performance include Crazy Cossacks Riderz, Human Slingshot, Wheel of Death, Human Cannonball, motorcycles in the Sphere of Fear, showgirls hanging from their hair, Olympic gymnasts, clowns and back-flipping dogs as seen on America’s Got Talent.
Tickets prices range from $15 to $60
- The first 100 general admission tickets will be sold online at $14.50, according to Garden Bros Nuclear Circus’ website.
- The circus also notes that the purchase of an adult ticket includes one free ticket for a child age 3 to 13.
- Children younger than 2 get in for free unless they require a seat.

Overland Park approved plans for the circus
- The Overland Park City Council on Monday approved a special event permit that allows the Garden Bros Nuclear Circus to set up in the northwest corner of the mall parking lot, near JCPenney.
- “I’m excited about this,” said Councilmember Paul Lyons at the meeting. “I think this going to be a great event for the Oak Park Mall, and it’s going to attract people from all around the region to it.”
