British, amateurish, brilliant…

Thank you to the eight staff (I counted them) of the marvelous Circus Ricardo who entertained us Saturday afternoon. An almost perfect treat – artless, funny, very British – the polar opposite of hyper-finished, totally slick (and equally wonderful) Shrek 2.

Those eight staff, of course, did everything, so we bought our candy floss from the tight-rope walker and watched the juggler pick up litter afterwards. Click the small pics for bigger ones.

    Oliver’s mate went to the same circus and told his mum after that he liked the lady on the trapeze best because she had great buzzocks.
