Circus Performers

The Ringmaster Presentador del circo

The ringmaster is the person that controls the circus. Some times he tells jokes, but most important of all is that he is loud so that the audience can hear him.

Tightrope walker EQUILIBRISTA

The job of a tight rope walker is very dangerous. He must walk high in the air above the audience. A tight rope walker needs very good balance because the rope is very thin. If he falls, He will die.

In New York in 1974 a man walked between the Two Towers. They were metres over 400metres high.

Jugglers Malabaristas

Every circus has jugglers. To juggle you have to be very skilful and practice a lot! It is very difficult. Can anyone juggle? A juggler can you use balls, rings and even fire and knives. Sometimes they can even juggle on unicycles. Unicycles are bikes on with only one wheel.

Clowns

Clowns are always at the circus. They are silly, and funny. They tell jokes, wear funny clothes and do stupid things.

Some people, like me, are frightened of clowns
