We were in New York City driving to the all famous Big Apple Circus. ( My First Circus!) We got our popcorn and me and my brother raced to our seats. I watched as I saw a trapeze actor going in the air like a Merry-Go-Round. Also going like a Merry-Go-Round a spaceship was flying around. If the trapeze actor crashed it would be terrible. After that performance there was a big wait. I was restless in my seat when the music started to play.
Two camels ran across the stage then two horses started galloping behind the camels. Suddenly two very cute baby camels joined in. The baby horses came in after. The trainer fed each animal from her hand. The amazing animals galloped off stage. A woman came out in a sparkling dress. When the ringmaster put a bag on her she came out in a millisecond dressed in a different dress. I clapped and clapped trying to find out how she was able to do that. A woman in a leprechaun dress juggled tennis rackets and stood on five items and while she was doing that she performed other amazing acts. Then came the men who did chinese Yo-Yo, they threw the Yo-Yo up and the other caught them. It was surprising.
The final one was the best and most dangerous act of all. The showman set up a humongous net, and some trapeze actors climbed up. They went up big ladders and stood on platforms. One trapeze actor swung on a loose platform. A trapeze actor swung to him and grabbed onto his feet. They swung up and down and the trapeze actor landed on a platform higher than the other one. They kept on doing those things and also swung dangerously back and forth. When everyone was on a high platform, they jumped into the net one by one. It was very dangerous. Last but not least a trapeze performer climbed to the highest point and dived headfirst into the net. We all stood in shock. The Big Apple Circus with its dangerous acts was over. I walked to the car and we drove home.
The dangerous trapeze act!
