My Visit to Gemini Circus
So finally I got chance to see the Gemini Circus which is now playing in Vadodara since 30th July. It was really necessary for me to go and see the circus today.
This is because 15th August is our Independence Day and also the Birthday of Gemini Circus. So I grabbed the opportunity and went to see the Circus at 7 pm show.
It started with usual Flying Trapeze act, one of the oldest and the most exiting act of any circus ! There were many new acts mixed with old ones. But each one left its impact on the spectators.
Now Indian Circuses are also trying to keep pace with the changing world. The result of this is the entry of Foreign Artists in Indian Circuses. There are Russian and African Artists with our Indian Artists. Quickly changing acts don’t let us go away from entertainment ! We can see the hard work put by these Artists and the Circus Staff to make a successful show.
You can instantly feel that the Circuses are now trying to attract more and more people. Though they face financial problems, they invest money in acquiring new types of equipments, lightings, water-proof tents, air-conditions, hiring foreign artists, etc.
The Circuses have started improving and now it is our duty to appreciate them. Please pay at least one visit to the Circus. I am quite sure you will also be charmed by this Purest Form of Entertainment that we fondly call - C I R C U S
