The Circus: Zing Zang Zoom!




This really has no relevance to Adventures in Odyssey, exept for once we get album 42 or something. There's an episode called Like Father, Like Wooton; where a circus comes to town!
But anyway, yesterday night I got to go to a circus in Arco Arena called, get this, Zing Zang Zoom! Their tagline is The Greatest Show on Earth. And I'm almost inclined to agree. I liked Mary Poppins on Broadway better, but my sister didn't so it's up in the air. The actual show was 2 hours long with an intermission. They had everything: elephants, tigers, tight rope walkers, clowns, an upside down act, acrobats in all shape and form, a dog act, horses and zebras!

My favorite act was the dog act... I never knew a maltese could walk on two legs for sooooo long! The different acrobatics acts were amazing too the things they could do with drapes are incredible. There was one where they were on this giant wood "swing" where they had to keep it going and they could flip across the swing.
Overall I really liked it! However it was really worldly which was really annoying, but it didn't entirely ruin the show. If you get a chance to see it DO!
