Can you imagine being the ninth generation of your family to join the circus?
That鈥檚 the reality for Joseph Dominick Bauer.
鈥淚t鈥檚 always something I鈥檝e enjoyed doing, the aerial work and all that, but I also started liking the role of the ring master.鈥
That鈥檚 the role you can catch Bauer in under the big top this weekend.
Bauer, his wife, and one of their two children are in 91大黄鸭 with the Royal Canadian International Circus.
Set up in the parking lot of Orchard Park Shopping Centre, there are shows from Thursday, July 7 through to Sunday, July 10.
The Ring Master says to expect some action-packed performances.
鈥淲e鈥檝e got artists from all over the world. We have Argentinian gauchos, we have a hand-balancer from Italy that does his hand balancing while singing opera鈥 we have my wife Claudia Bauer who performs 40 feet in the air on a swinging trapeze without any safety devices whatsoever. We have the Chicago Boys which were featured on America鈥檚 Got Talent.鈥
You can also find circus staples like cotton candy, popcorn, merchandise, and face painting.
Tickets are available to purchase or at the box office outside the big red and yellow tent.
Bauer says it鈥檚 a must-see show with fun for children of all ages.
