Mark Hayward

He's a world yo-yo champion.  He's a spin-top champion.  He's a member of the world juggling team and even founded Madison's Annual Juggling Festival, MadFest.  David Letterman calls Mark Hayward's tricks "a thing of beauty."  A self-proclaimed cool guy, Mark's Madison-mom claims, "he's the best!"  But don't take her word for it.  Bring your family to the Rotunda Stage for a first-hand experience of exciting stunts and high-energy mastery with Mark Hayward!

Each Saturday from the end of September through April at 9:30 AM, 11 AM and 1 PM, Overture Center presents Kids in the Rotunda, a series of FREE artistic programs designed for children and families. This popular performing arts series on the Rotunda Stage offers a relaxed, kid-friendly environment in which to enjoy a diverse lineup of local and regional musicians, storytellers, jugglers, theater troupes, magicians and dancers. The 1 PM performances are sign language interpreted.

Kids in the Rotunda is generously sponsored by American Girl's Fund for Children.  Additional funding for Kids in the Rotunda is provided by contributors to the Overture Center Foundation.  To learn how you can help make arts experiences real for hundreds of thousands of people here in the greater Madison area, click here.
