SALISBURY -- The Greatest Show on Earth returns to Salisbury tonight for a four-day stand at the Wicomico Youth & Civic Center.
Dubbed "RinglingBros. and Barnum & BaileyPresentsBarnum Bash," the show features all the classic circus acts you'd expect from the biggest name in the business, including live Asian elephants, a world-famous strong man and the infamous "Wheel of Steel."
Anton, a "loveable, goofy hipster clown," will provide plenty of comic relief, while the high-wire high jinx, dazzling feats of strength and exotic parade of animals will be set to contemporary pop music.
Earlier this week the Ambassadors of Laughter, a group which includes Barnum performers, took time to visit several area elementary schools, libraries and day cares, and provided free educational programs on reading, fitness and science.
An hour before the show begins, all ticket holders are invited to attend the pre-show party, which includes everything from dance and juggling lessons, to photo ops with performers and a meet-and-great with a real, live elephant.
The first show kicks off tonight at 7:30 p.m. and five additional shows are scheduled to run through Sunday afternoon. Opening night tickets are $12, while all other performances are $20. A limited number of VIP Gold seats are also available for $35.
