This show began with one of the most magical, energetic physical first acts that I can remember. The circus truly sprung into life. I learned more about the circus and had more fun in the theater than I have had in a while.  Every transition, every movement of a piece of scenery or a prop, every curtain that had to move, became a wondrous physical event.  I can’t remember the last time I saw the stage spectacle so alive.
