I don't know if they still do the rounds anymore. I wonder what a circus would be like now?

I'm not sure if I want to go, I quite like the idea of the circus more than wanting to see clowns and acrobats. This is the Moscow State Circus, I'm not sure animals appear any more. no, I’ve never been to a circus.

Speaking of tents, I did witness (in a tent) what had to have been one of the last true 'freak shows' in the US. I expect I will have to post about it now. P.S.

I don't believe I've ever been to the circus in the traditional Big Top. Even when I was little, the circus was always in some 'coliseum' or sports arena. I did sneak in the back of some tent (religious) revivals, though, and that was almost as good as the circus. But no tigers nor ladies in spangly costumes. Sigh.
