There are a number of these dunkem in a tank act in Europe. Some were nothing but a shear body stocking. I love em, but if I had my young children at the circus I might question it's necessity.

I'm as tired of hula hoops and silks as everone else. I hope this new European sensation catch's on here.

All right Wade...Where are the men?
You know...equal rights......bring them on...........
and I'm not talking about you on the bear again..........
And the purpose is? couldn't you see the same "act" at the nearest strip club?
Seems the circus always claimed that it never needed outside censorship.
This act might change that premise.
I also would hate to have the grandkids at this venue because they would go to sleep.
This would have been the perfect act for Billy Barton..LOL..I can just see him now, being dipped..LOL..
Is this what we are going to be seeing at Animal Gardens in the future?

Jeannie,
You can see this at the other division of Animal Gardens in the evenings.

Cirque d'Hiver last season again. The second time the act has been there, but then she did marry in to the Bouglione family.

John,
Are you inferring that marrying into a family is an advantageous career booster?

OMG, that's hot. I agree 100% The circus IS about beautiful bodies, and that isn't anything vulgar like what any music videos are.
I've always thought that circus activities (for the most part) produce some of the most beautiful, athletic bodies anywhere - both male and female.

I think it was a big mistake in this country to put the circus in the class of children's entertainment.
Kids have little appreciation of advanced skill, and once they get beyond kindergarten, the magic of clowns and the cute little dogs, and "look mommy, a tiger" (doesn't matter if it's doing anything or not) has long gone - the world is full of things to fill their entertainment needs.
A friend of mine who performed on several big European shows told me that the evening shows were almost 90% adult patrons. On one show, the dance chorus performed topless at evening shows, as did the contortion act, with a full bar in the foyer tent.
And, shows like Soleil are predoninantly adult audiences.
The traditionalist will never agree, but, then again that's probably why traditional circvus is sliding down the tubes at a rapid pace.

Ian,
I think a big mistake has been putting it in the class of "childs entertainment." And if a child doesn't like what is there today, that has to be disturbing and should require some rethinking.
