Shriner's Circus... Is that it?
by Momof2Tots on 2009-07-21CAMBRIDGE MALL - CAMBRIDGERating: 2 out of 5If this is your first time going to a circus, you may find the Shriner's Circus entertaining. I, however, have seen a three-ring circus, so I found that there just wasn't enough happening to truly captivate my attention, nor the attention of my two toddlers for that matter. This circus is basically the same talented people over and over again, check their website, where the individual performers named are from the larger families/groups. I realize that it isn't everyone's dream these days to run away with the circus, but it would be nice to have minimal people recycled throughout the acts. And more animals, please. There are only horses, dogs and elephants, absolutely no wild cats, unless you consider the act put on by the chinese acrobats in lion costumes, which is an impressive act, but not real lions. The horse act was very boring, although it was my eldest son's favourite act... The horses ran in a circle and didn't do much else. To finalize my point of view on this... Been there, done that, probably won't do it again unless I have free tickets.
