Take a trip in time back to simpler days and the origins of the circus while having modern-day thrills. You can experience the innocence and joy of the original types of circus acts that would have the audience in awe and laugh at the funny clowns as you sit close enough to touch the performers at the Big Apple Circus, which opened for its 35th season this weekend at Damrosch Park in Lincoln Center, located at 62nd Street between Amsterdam and Columbus avenues. This year, the Big Apple Circus is presenting “Legendarium,” and it is lovely.
The performers include acrobats, contortionist, slack wire performers, dog acts, horse acts, trapeze artists, a woman who hangs from long silks, juggling and two extremely funny clowns who will have you smiling, laughing and surprised by their antics.
