Launching the Celebration of 250 Years of Circus

Circus 250 is billed as “a UK-wide celebration of 250 years of circus in 2018.” Circus has had a great cultural impact on every inch of the world and now is the time to celebrate that! Circus Talk will spend time in 2018 exploring the history of circus. Until then, let’s work to recognize the birthday of circus as a time to honor the long history as well as the innovation in circus that we are seeing occur everyday.
