See amazing feats from ringside seats
The circus under the big top returns this weekend

Cole Bros Circus 1

As they said in days of old: “Hold your horses, here come the elephants!” Those hugely popular pachyderms, Tina and Jewel, have packed up their trunks to tour with Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars.

Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars features a spectacular show filled with educated animals including elephants, camels, miniature horses, Professor Elmo's Snickers, the mind-reading pony, Craig Rogers K-9 Air Sports Team as seen on Animal Planet, Abuhadba's Fantasy Poodle Review, and even a few surprising guests that aim to charm the audience! In addition to the animals, a galaxy of illustrious artists formerly featured in circuses around the world will alternately thrill, amaze, astound and amuse circus patrons.

Cole Bros Circus 2

Marvel's Spider-Man arrives to exhibit super-heroic moves on the Astrocycle, and promises to vanquish his nemesis, Green Goblin, in a fast-paced, fun-filled adventure on the Giant Wheel. South America's Bermudez Clowns cavort in a series of comedic mishaps concocted to consternate stately Ringmaster Chris Connors.

California aerialists Blaze Birge and David Jones make their East Coast debut in turns on the swinging single and double trapeze. Equally sultry and strong, Russia’s Svetlana displays incredible power and poise, perching, turning and twisting on a single hand in a demonstration of equilibristic dexterity.

Cole Bros Circus 3

Brazil's silliest strong man, "Pumped Up" Andrey Medeiros, will baffle audiences with brilliant feats of balance, and Cole Bros. singing host, the talented Ted McRae, offers audience members the opportunity to enter center ring and assist him in exhibiting most unusual circus attractions.

Always an artist of the highest caliber, Ukraine's Blonde Bombshell, Zarina, bursts from the World's Largest Cannon to end the show with a bang!
