WEST UNION, IOWA - The Fayette County Agricultural Society will host the Carson and Barnes Circus at the Fayette County Fairgrounds in West Union Wednesday, Aug. 25. Show-times are scheduled for 4:30 and 7:30 p.m.
The 74th edition of the Carson & Barnes Circus will bring almost 100 performers and animals to West Union for the one-day performance. Carson & Barnes Circus travels with its city-block-long tent to some 200 towns and cities during its 10-month season.
Prior to the shows, the general public is cordially invited to watch as the first units of the caravan begin arriving about an hour after dawn on Aug. 25. Through-out the day, the local fair-grounds will be transformed into “Circus City USA.”
Featuring a large traveling zoo, over two dozen types of exotic and domestic animals, will be unloaded, fed and watered, and made available for viewing during this time. Adding to the exciting atmosphere is the final and most popular experience of all, as humans, elephants and technology work side by side to erect America’s most spectacular and largest circus Big Top.
The performers are artists from around the world, including the United States, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Russia and Italy. Acts consist of aerial trapeze, high wire, motorcycle acrobatic teams, jugglers and clowns, along with performing elephants, camels, dogs and horses.
Special to the 2010 circus program is the award-winning clown and world-renowned “King of Comedy” Alex, who will entertain those in attendance with hilarious high-bounding feats on the trampoline.
