On my list of great acts with Blue for those years I forgot Rogana. She was only with the first of the two years. Don't know why. She nd husband, great ringmaster from Europe, Frank Foster, nhave been retirees here for a number of years and always look forward to seeing them a our circus functions here. Very nice couple.

Rogana (Dora Foster) personified class, sophistication and glamor in the ring. Aided and abetted by Frank on the ground, she created a special kind of magic that can only be found in the circus.

i believe they may have been on the 69 edition too. no idea why they weren't on the 2 year 100th anniv. run. it was indeed a beautifully choreographed and executed act--easily adaptable to nightclubs, TV etc. we later worked together on independent dates...both Frank, Jr. and his dad were English circus names...i think they had a son who is probably not in the business.
