July 14, 2003 /GO Brooklyn GROOM’S A CLOWN
By Lisa J. Curtis,The Brooklyn Paper
The Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros. Circus comes to Marine Park (Avenue U, west of Flatbush Avenue) July 16-20 with its new "Sailabrate" show, promising exotic animals, aerial daredevils and pirates - including the "Blackbeard Society’s Initiation Rites."
The three-ring circus, produced by John and Brigitte Pugh, features golden tabby and rare white Bengal tigers from India, flying trapeze artists, elephants, the "Asian Imperial Hair-Hang," Zarina Sinovat as "The Ukrainian Femme Phenom Human Cannonball" and more.
At 9:15 am on July 16, the animal trainers invite Brooklynites for a free tour of the circus backyard during the tent raising. Animal superintendent Adam Hill and Tina the elephant will conduct an interactive educational program about animal training.
On July 17, at 10:30 am, a clown named "The Wizard of Odd" will ride out with his fiancee on elephants, and then they will wed (really!) under the big top. (That show, however, is sold-out.)
Additional show times are July 16, at 5 pm and 8 pm; July 17, at 8 pm; July 18, at 5 pm and 8 pm; and July 19-20 at 1:30 pm, 5 pm and 8 pm.
Tickets are $22 for VIP Ringside seats; $16, $11 children and seniors for reserved seats; and $14, $9 children and seniors for general admission seats. For more information, call (718) 252-4137.
