With a circular structure and covered with canvas, the traditional circus is usually made up of families. In the ring, there is no lack of clowns' confusions, fire-breathers, trapeze artists, the magician's illusions. Also noteworthy are the numbers of tamers who command lions, elephants and make monkeys act.
These days, however, there is a movement called the New Circus. He combines traditional circus juggling and acrobatics with dance and theater techniques. The presentations feature light effects, music and multicolored clothes. In this new trend in circus art, there is no longer the presence of animals.
