Some where in my little dream circus, all circus personel inside the big top would have to be wearing a uniform such as a coverup all the same. Those non performers [the backbone of the circus] shall all look professional and as neat as the preformers. Not to distract from the acts in the rings.No slouching and leaning up againest the nearest pole. Notice how Buckles stands while his parents are working! Very straight with his arms folded. I have noticed several performer slouching inside the ring these past few years. I must have been too close to an elephant and caught PMS today.

While looking at this photo, I noticed the people in the background before I saw the performers in the ring. I have always noticed this, but this was the first time it really stood out to me where I could show what I ment on paper. My idea would also make it easier to spot a circus person from an a/r person. I just think it would make a much neater looking show. Kelly Miller had all the personel moving props, etc. dressed in black slacks and white shirts and ties when I visited them. It really looked so nice and added to the show. Its those little details that make a lot of difference. Like I said, its my little dream circus.
