Molto Bello!Celebrated clown returns to Queens with Big Apple Circus after nine years away
By Anna Gustafson, Thursday, May 20, 2010
Entertainers from around the globe will descend upon Cunningham Park in Fresh Meadows this week when the Big Apple Circus launches its 14-show run that features Bello Nock, a world-renowned daredevil clown who describes his antics as something between Evel Knievel and Kramer from “Seinfeld.”
Nock, who has returned to the Big Apple Circus after a nine-season hiatus, will be joined by acrobats from Italy and Russia, a juggler from Spain, and trapeze artists from China for the 32nd season of the Big Apple Circus. The shows run from May 22 to June 6 in Cunningham Park.
“This year the show is called ‘Bello is Back,’ because it’s based around me, a comic daredevil who comes back to a place he’s been away from for many years,” Nock said. “But there is so much more to the show than this one guy. You have a husband-and-wife team from France and Kazakhstan working together with horses. We have a Bulgarian and Russian group who play and have a lot of fun. It’s amazing.”
