If you go
Today's performance times are 10:30 a.m., 2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. Saturday's performance times are 10:30 a.m., 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.
Jest In Time Circus will perform on the stage near the main gate for the fairgrounds on the Atomictown Stage.
For some, it might be the high-pitched voice of Li Li Zucchini that draws them into the tent of the Jest In Time Circus at the Benton Franklin Fair & Rodeo in Kennewick.
Or maybe they followed Topper Todd on his antique big-wheeled penny-farthing bike or heard the pair's jokes on the stage as they walked by.
Whatever the reason, people drawn to the show soon find themselves unable to walk away.
