My granddaughter ran away and joined the circus in 2017. What happens at the circus doesn’t stay at the circus. Great granddaughter is now 2 years old. 😆
 
Never saw the circus workers as sad figures. We had carnivals every summer where I grew up and the workers always looked like criminals that were on the run.
 
Stars who ran away to join the circus
The circus has often lured people away from static lives to live the life of an itinerant performer.

"When young Ehrich Weisz needed to support his family he joined a circus, making his professional debut in 1883 as a trapeze artist aged nine. He later developed an interest in magic, but did other jobs while learning his craft. Changing his name to Harry Houdini, in honour of his hero French magician Robert Houdin, he took to travelling with a circus again, but later left the big top to make his name as a solo artist with his own show. When he died in 1926 he was the world’s most famous magician."
