The Circus . . .

The circus was totally worth it! No bad seats and we chose the top row so we would have a back rest. Tatum stood up ninety-five per cent of the time and clapped with the crowd. She is generally so serious and again she was tonight but a few times she laughed and smiled out loud. Chandler I noticed was laughing a lot along with Pa and Stephen. Cooper was tired and fell asleep. Another fun evening. Here is a picture and short "blip" from the circus.


In Old-World Italian tradition, the Zoppè Family Circus welcomes you into their intimate 500 -seat tent for a one-ring circus. This magnificent show is propelled by a central story featuring acrobatic feats, equestrian showmanship, canine capers, clowning and plenty of audience participation. Giovanni Zoppè, the sixth-generation circus performer who plays Nino the clown, says the show aims higher than what passes for circuses these days. "We try to touch every emotion during the show," he says. "They'll laugh, they'll cry, and they'll feel for the characters."
