There was a lot of old fashioned fun under the Big Top as Circo Osorio came to town last weekend.
All the elements of a circus were there, except, of course the animals. These days, caging wild animals and dragging them about the country is considered cruelty not entertainment.
But, this group of talented performers from all around Latin America offered the crowd everything else: aerial acrobatics, magic and illusion, juggling, fun with bicycles, rope tricks, and for the finale, two motorcyclists riding around inside a dome.
There were popcorn sellers and people selling light-up magic wands working the crowd between acts, a ringmaster in a brocade jacket, and a super clown named Rafinha to keep the adults and children excited throughout the entire event.
After the show, many of the audience said they were looking forward to when the circus comes back.
