Not just in Atlanta but all over the country.NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. I think that you and your family should go! There are a lot more shows. There was also a tiny little lady who lived inside this man’s fat stomach. Now this is the cool part, there were people who looked just like the people at the dinner party but they were upside down on the ceiling (you had to be there). He stacked the chairs on top of the table high into the sky, then stood on them trying to reach Chandelier. Some other really cool moments were when the scientist was having a dinner party and the Chandelier flew away. I recently learn to ride a bike but nothing like this. She did all sorts of things on her bike including riding it upside down. The performer dressed like a delivery lady on a bike was one of those moments. It was a mixture between an octopus and some other type of sea creature. He was hilarious especially the scene when he pull a lady out the audience and acted like a cat and a bird. He didn’t talk he made sound effect and gestures. The show was hosted by a mad scientist, a man with a giant brain, a dancing lady, two boys who resembled tweedledee and tweedledum from Alice in Wonderland and a man that reminded me of a clown. I had front row seats which made it even more spectacular because I got to touch and see the performers up close. There was a live band and a singer that song throughout the show. It was similar to the traditional circus but more like a live musical. When the clock struck 11:11, all type’s magical things began. Well, this year I went to Cirque du Soleil to see Kurious. I am very familiar with the UniverSoul and the Ringling Brothers Circuses, in fact I go yearly.
