Cirque Italia comes to Greenwood and Indianapolis
An Italian circus was set up in the Greenwood Park Mall parking lot this past weekend. A huge tent complex was home to a remarkable performance of “Water Circus Gold”.

Massive tent complex
The name comes from the unique 35,000 gallon water show that is part of the excitement of the many acts in this circus. The two hour show is filled with incredible acts of aerial acrobats, jugglers, archers and trapeze artists.

Balancing act

“Wheel of Death”
In addition to the many acts of the talented performers, one has to acknowledge the role of the “clown”. Providing a muliude of skits, mimes and hilarity, he keeps the crowd laughing. His “Elvis” is a real treat.


Suitable for people of all ages, this exciting activity will delight the kids and grandkids in your family. There are no bad seats, and full concessions are available. Currently the circus is moving to the Castleton Square Mall for the April 4-7 run. Click here for ticket information.

So sad to wake up to the news of a shooting in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday night. I hadn’t watched any news on Sunday and just heard of it today.
