Bellingham, WA – The Shoestring Circus in Bellingham got an unexpected shout-out on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on January 24, 2025, thanks to actress Britt Lower, who joined them during her break from filming “Severance.”


Started by a group of local circus artists, the Shoestring Circus has become a beloved part of Bellingham’s cultural scene. They perform under a classic big top tent right by the waterfront, offering up a mix of tightwire acts, aerial stunts, and juggling that you won’t forget.


Lower took on the role of “Queen” for the circus, sitting on an awning and playing the ukulele, all while dressed up like Freddie Mercury. This not only gave viewers a peek into the fun and creativity of the circus but also highlighted Bellingham’s quirky arts community.


Located near Waypoint Park, the circus is all about bringing people together with performances that are both entertaining and community-focused. This national mention has really put a spotlight on how the Shoestring Circus adds to what makes Bellingham special. It’s about more than just the acts; it’s about the sense of wonder and community they bring to town.
