WTVI airs show on life under the big top
Posted: Wednesday, Jun. 23, 2010
"Children of All Ages," a documentary about circus life, will have its television debut at 8 p.m. today on WTVI (Channel 42).
In three-ring fashion, the program focuses on a trilogy of big top subjects: the Sailor Circus, the nation's longest-running children's circus; the world's largest miniature circus, a 3,800-square-foot tabletop exhibit with more than a million pieces; and interviews with performers from the original Ringling ensemble.
"Children of All Ages" is a production by Scott Galloway of Davidson, who recently did a documentary on the fading attractions of North Carolina called "Our Vanishing Americana."
