Cirkus Cirkus Classic

This weekend while Taylor was out camping we took the little kids to Cirkus Cirkus Classic http://cirkusclassic.cz/program. What a laugh, we didn't understand a word the Ring Master was saying, it didn't seem to matter, we could still tell when he was introducing an act. Over all it was lighthearted and fun with some good performances. We did come away thinking that lots of things in NZ have become very PC! For example a clown came out smoking, blowing smoke rings!! He then proceeded to hose the audience down with water ... it wasn't a little sprinkle but actually a hose. Later in the show when he was dressed in a traditional woman's dress, it was ripped off revealing his woman's underwear. It was all in good taste, but I could imagine complaints of all sorts back home, here in the Czech Republic everyone just laughed and gave standing ovations. We were just as entertained by the audience as the performances (acrobats, juggling, elephant, fancy horse riding, seals, balancing ...) A great night out.
