Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
Happy to hear about Ben Back in 1960 just 1 year before I first got tangled up with the "Beatty Show" (my first circus experience) I was Technical Director for a chain of summer tented musical theaters by the name of "The Music Fairs" and Phil Escalante (as mentioned in the above program) was the boss canvas man for all their tops He and his wife Betty (who later on worked for Bobby Johnsen in concessions) also had the concessions at the Haddonfield NJ summer tent His brother in law (Betty's brother) Herbie Weber was on the "Beatty Show" in the early sixties with a low wire act and a slide for life It's all show biz Chic

Happy to hear about Ben
Back in 1960 just 1 year before
I first got tangled up with the
"Beatty Show" (my first circus
experience) I was Technical
Director for a chain of summer
tented musical theaters by the
name of "The Music Fairs" and
Phil Escalante (as mentioned in
the above program) was the boss
canvas man for all their tops
He and his wife Betty (who
later on worked for Bobby
Johnsen in concessions) also
had the concessions at the
Haddonfield NJ summer tent
His brother in law (Betty's
brother) Herbie Weber was on
the "Beatty Show" in the early
sixties with a low wire act and
a slide for life
It's all show biz
