Hello everyone,
Have you ever been to a circus? I had no
prior experience of circus, and I was expecting a lot, believe me on June 12,
2021, I experienced it and it was above my expectations. The circus was very
entertaining and enjoyable. All the stunts performed were risky barring few. I
want to share my experience of this circus with you. So, grab some popcorn
because this is going to be a wild ride. Me, my parents, and my sister were
hustling past the anxious crowd of people waiting for the circus to start. We
finally found a seat near to the front row so we could have a closer look at
the action. We came a few minutes early, so waited for the action to begin and waited
patiently. While we waited, me and my sister snapped some pictures together. Soon
the speakers boomed aloud, and male voice spoke “WELCOME LADIES AND GENTALMEN
TO THE GARDEN BROTHERS CIRCUS!” When he finished a few beautifully clad girls
went on stage and started dancing while a man came running out from the
backstage curtains. He dashed past the girls with a huge grin. The man came to
a halt in the middle of the circus tent! He looked around at the crowd waving
his hands. He then jumped on top of the giant wheel. I remembered what this
stunt was called. The Pendulum acts on a
giant wheel! Soon 2 men gripped each
end of a rope which was connected to the wheel. The man on the wheel nodded this was the sign to start rolling
the wheel. Right after the men rolled the rope and the wheel pushed itself up
then the man started running within the wheel as he ran the wheel rolled. He
was followed by oohs and ahs but what really got the crowd's attention was the
stunts he pulled like he sat on the wheel as it came up. He was upside down and
not a trace of fear in his attitude. He even got on top of the wheel which
really got the crowd’s attention, he performed all kinds of aerobics while the
pendulum wheel was rolling. From every direction I heard WOW! Everyone was
dazzled by this talented man. His ending was incredible! He was on top of the
wheel when he leapt right off! His smile was bigger than before. Walking past
the crowd the man violently waved his hands up in the air. He soon disappeared
behind the curtains. To keep everyone entertained the women came back out but
with different wardrobes the women had snuck back into the curtains while the
audience were busy watching the stunts, to change their clothes. Soon some men
came out from the curtains to pull the giant wheel backstage. The men had to
dismantle the giant wheel so that it could be moved away from the arena to the backstage.
When the wheel was being rolled back a man came to the center with a huge phone.
Well, the phone was not real, it was made from foam. Soon a different music
started playing. The dancing girls disappeared, and a funny man came out. He
was a great dancer and the audience including me were amused. It was hilarious
until the Manager CAME. He yelled at the funny man “NO DANCING!” And he pressed
the fake phone for the music to stop. He handed the funny man a mop and asked to
clean but the audience shouted “boooooo!” The Manger mocked the audience and
stuck out his tongue. He went backstage and the funny man sadly cleaned the
floor until his gaze fell onto the phone. He pointed to it, asking the
audience, should he press it. The audience including me, and my sister yelled “DO
IT!” We made noise by stomping our feet on the metal below our seats. The funny
man flung the mop and ran to the dummy phone and pressed a fake button his
action started “Dance Monkey” music. The funny man started dancing wearing a
monkey mask. He was all over the place. Yet again the Manager appeared and
stopped the music by pressing a fake button of a dummy phone. He walked to the
mop and picked it up, went straight to the funny man and snatched his mask. He showed
the mop to the funny man and yelled “NO DANCING!” The audience including me got
super mad and we all shouted again “BOOOOOO” the funny man sadly mopped the
floor again till the Manager walked away he quickly turned his gaze back to the
fake phone. He pointed at it looking curiously around! Everyone chanted. “DO IT
DO IT!” banging their feet loudly on the metal. The funny man threw the mop and
raced to the fake phone and started the music again, this time it was playing BABY
SHARK. Someone threw a stuffed baby shark at the funny man, he caught it and
started dancing to the tune. The Manager came running to the center of the
arena and snatched the stuffed baby shark out of the funny man’s hand but no
worries because this time someone threw a stuffed daddy shark and the funny man
caught it and smacked the Manager's head this made manager furious, and he
snatched daddy shark away from the funny man and threw it away he was so
furious that he BROKE THE FAKE PHONE and threw the phone into the garbage. He
then picked up the mop from the ground and handed it to the funny man and shouted,
“NO DANCING!” The audience including me shouted “BOOOOOOO”, but the Manager did
not care. He walked away from the arena and the funny man started cleaning the
area. The funny man walked to the garbage to check on the phone as he opened
the lid of garbage music started playing! He quickly placed the lid back on the
music that had been played made the Manager run out to check on him, by the
time he came to the arena the music wasn’t playing and the funny man was
mopping the area. As soon as the Manager left, the funny man sniggered and
opened the lid again and music started. The funny man did not notice the
Manager while he was dancing but when he turned around, he quickly put the lid
back on. The Manager gleefully said, “It’s ok come on dance!” and he took the
garbage lid off. The Manager started dancing to the tune and the funny man
followed along and they danced in a sync it was charm to watch, but the funny
man had a different plan all of sudden he did a different step hit the Manager
with his head and while the manager lay on the floor the funny man picked him
up on his shoulder and dumped him the same garbage box and rolled that garbage
box out of arena, the audience cheered him on.
My Dad, me and my sister got up to get snacks
and refreshments, but my mom stayed. We headed outside to find many people
having the same idea. We had to wait in a huge line to get slushies for me and
my sister. They came with glass which glowed in the dark! It took a long time
to reach the counter and finally we got 2 blue slushies! After slushies we went
to another counter to get Lemonade for my mom and Dad! And then we went to the Popcorn
counter, we grabbed some popcorn, and we were headed back in the tent the
speakers boomed and a male voice said, “The show is starting!” We scurried through
the clumps of people till we found our seats. My sister tapped me on the
shoulder when we settled down, I turned to see what she needed. She had a huge
grin on her face, and I asked, “What do you need?” She pointed her finger in
the opposite direction to a huge cannon! She whispered, “it’s the cannon which
launches the person!” I glanced back to the center and noticed that they were
blowing up a big bouncy air mat! It almost took 11 minutes for the men to blow
up the air mat! Soon after they did the spotlight had turned on and it was
focused on the cannon when a man stepped right on top of the cannon hands in
the air he was waving at the crowd with a huge grin on his face! First, he was
giving hand signals to the men in the center. Next, he started waving to the
crowd once more as he got off the cannon, looked around to check everything was
as per his satisfaction and then he slipped inside the cannon. Someone shouted
on the mic “Help me count down! 5…4…3…2…1…BLAST OF!” there was a loud boom, and
the man was flying out of the cannon. He was in the air for a while covering
quite a distance in the air before landing on the air mat! I muttered to myself
“And they say humans can't fly.” It took them a couple more minutes to help the
man down the air mat and let the air out. I have described only a few here, I
saw a wonderful dog show, then a single man riding two horses, a lady riding a
horse and pulling out unbelievable stunts. The entire audience was mesmerized
when Wheel of Death started. In a globe-like cage I saw four motorbikes
biking around, it was scary but then a treat to watch. We never realized how
time passed suddenly, I heard a fun type of music and all the performers
started pouring out waving at the audience.
Then the speakers boomed one last time and a
male voice asked, “DID YOU LIKE THE GARDEN BROTHERS NUCLEAR CIRCUS!” The crowd
answered with cheers and uploads. This will be a memory that I will never
forget.
