Shrine Circus brings family fun to Consol

Post Gazette: "When the Shrine Circus rolls into Consol Energy Center on Friday, there will be plenty of flipping, flopping, climbing and somersaulting -- and that's just from daredevil clown Bello Nock. Spider-Man, Green Goblin and a crew of trained animals and performers from around the world will join him at the first Shrine Circus to take place at the new arena.

This definitely would be a sight to see. Seeing Bello who is such a renowned clown, and not a conventional one, would be great to experience a twist on a typical circus. Its great that they are changing their act to relevant topics and issues today. Seeing their take on Spider-Man and how they add the twists to their show would be hilarious and interesting at the same.

It is interesting to see the differences in scope of show which is so readily apparent in circuses. This is obviously the highest end form of the art, and is capable of doing projects which are beyond even consideration for the smaller projects. Tis question speaks a little bit to theater projects like pig pen. I like simple theatrical experiences which are heavily reliant on creativity, not on budget. that is not to say that this show does not look awesome.
