March 27 is Circus
March 27 is Circus Day in Brazil, a date that celebrates the tradition of this cultural manifestation that enchants people of all ages. The choice of the date dates back to the birth of Benjamin Rabier, one of the most important circus artists in the country, who had a great influence on the popularization of the circus in Brazil.
Circus Day is an opportunity to recognize the historical and cultural value of the circus, which, over the years, has been a space of magic, laughter and also reflection. Since the beginning of the 19th century, the circus has been consolidating itself as one of the main entertainment shows, with its performances full of acrobatics, clowns, trapeze artists and jugglers.
In addition to being a form of popular art, the circus also represents the struggle of circus artists, who face challenges in their profession. In many cities in Brazil, Circus Day is celebrated with special presentations and events that revive this tradition, keeping the spirit of the circus alive amidst the cultural transformations of society.
