The rings will be filled with new thrills for circus-lovers young and old when the Mizpah Shrine Circus returns today through Sunday to Memorial Coliseum.
Along with updated shows involving circus favorites, such as the elephants and Arabian horses, this year's shows will feature several acts new to Fort Wayne, said Larry Solheim, general manager of TZ Productions, which operates the circus.
