When the Circus Came to Town, by Robert Kitchen
This presentation documents the history of the circus in Fall River, Massachusetts, during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and was adapted from a popular illustrated lecture by Bob Kitchen, a noted circus historian.
Experience the sights and sounds of the circus in its heyday – from the thrill of the circus parade to the exotic animals and electrifying performers – including Fall River’s own Rose Wentworth, a famous equestrienne.
Join Bob on a delightful romp through this once widely popular form of entertainment. If you ever dreamed of running away with the circus, this one is for you!
