Students learned what it takes to join the circus with interactive demos and a Q&A with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey performers on Wednesday at Pennsylvania All-Stars in the Gateway Shopping Center in Edwardsville. The performers worked closely to mentor and help local athletes ranging in age from 10-12 perfect their acrobatic skills and learn more about becoming a professional performer.
The circus performers are in town for the return of the all-new re-imagined “Greatest Show On Earth,” to the Wilkes-Barre area for the first time in eight years. Multiple show times are slated for Friday through Sunday at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza.
