After church, those who attend the circus see acrobats; aerial silks; clowns; elephants; equestrian acts; exotic animal menageries including tigers and bears; fire eaters and breathers; fortune tellers; gymnastic dancers; hooping; jugglers; knife throwing; lion tamers; living human curiosities; magic shows; musical bands; plate spinners; stilt walkers; strongmen; sword swallowing; tightrope walkers; trapeze artists; unicyclists.
Some sneak in while others do a few errands for someone in the circus to pay their fare.
<#kate: Just putting the needs in case anyone wants to add something to this specific circus.#>
<#jonah: Ollie seems really ambivalent about going to the circus this year, but agrees to go, and seems to genuinely enjoy himself. #> <#court: Jeanne keeps an eye on him, and as the day goes on she seems relieved and relaxes. #>
<#ann: Celeste and Cole don't pay to get in. They spend a lot of time in the carney games area that evening before and after the main performance, but don't come back with any prizes, though they seem satisfied with themselves. #>
<#ann: After watching the circus jugglers, Celeste realizes that she has been trying to do the three-ball cascade incorrectly this whole time. It takes awhile, but with her new knowledge she eventually figures it out. Over the course of several weeks/months she improves and becomes a competent juggler.#>
<#bill: Cole sees one of the fortune tellers, but is clearly disappointed. When asked what she said he just shakes his head and says, "She's a fraud." #>
<#court: If Jeanne notices him wandering over there, she would have joined - or have already been over there to begin with when he walked up. Or if you'd prefer Cole be there alone, Jeanne will question him about it extensively and go over separately. What do you think? #>
