Few may recall the famed Clarke family had second acts. Noted here in Display 10 is their juggling turn. I'm now prompted to find my photos of this act, as they filled the ring with people and props. As the Clarkonians flying act, we see they were not listed for the '35 Garden run. Up in the riggings were the Concellos, the Otaris, and the long-time Concello-pwned Flying Comets. I found the Otaris on YouTube, doing their criss-cross flying long before the adaptation of such acts for Cirque du Soleil.
