Question: Circus theatres!?
Where would circus members live not in the contemporary world but before!? Can a circus theatre be a permanet place where a certain circus's member do their events, i asked this because most circus entertainers move around from place to place!. When was the idea of a 'circus' first introduced and by whom!? What forms of violence did people and animals get in a circus!? How were these stopped if stopped!? Where did the circus entertainers sleep, a shack or sumting!?

Thanks for answering!Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Barnum had the American Dime Museum in New York City, and it was kind of a "permanent" circus!. If you have an area with a lot of tourism, you can have a permanent location for a circus!. Cirque du Soleil has permanent locations in Las Vegas!. If the area doesn't have a lot of tourism, locals will quickly tire of the same acts over and over!.

When traveling, circus performers and workers often live in a caravan of RVs, smaller circuses have been know to have their performers live in vans, or even sleep in the performance tent!. Sometimes they will make enough money to rent a cheap hotel room, but not often!.

Eating depends!. If they have a kitchen facility in the RV, many will cook the same as people in homes will!. Others live off of fast food and convenience store burritoes, and some larger circuses have a cook shack that travels with them!.
