Circo Atayde(Aguilar) Hermanos









Yesterday Ian asked, "how is business in Mexico?" I feel the two biggest lies going right now are 1. Unemployment is down and the economy is rising and 2. Business is great and the tent's are full. That said, I took the above photo's last night of the midway, 15 minutes after the start of the first show, which was sold out. The line in the top photo extended for 3 blocks, down the hill in picture two, past the menagerie in picture 3, and into the midway/ticket wagon in picture 4, and past in picture 5. So what do you think Ian? "How is business in Mexico?"

  1. Looking good. Latin counties sure dig a big circus. When I was in Peru, we sold out most shows in Lima for 6 weeks, and the ticket prices were half a weeks pay for most people in Lima. And, there were 5 circuses in town at the same time most of the time! Tihany did two months in Lima - completely sold out, with ticket prices double what we charged.
    Good to see those folks are doing good business in Mexico.
