As a fervent supporter of animal circuses

Princess Stéphanie of Monaco was quick to

voice her opposition to the legislation

This is Marrylou Richter, formally Marrylou Casselly. And one of 3 animal act on the 42 Monte Carlo.

Marylou married into the family that

operates "Magyar Nemzeti Cirkusz"

the Hungarian National Circus

Some of the Richters were on our

Mont Carlo touring production

I visited some of the family in

Hungary a few years back

Stephanie is my kind of girl. I bet she could Roman ride elephants just like Marrylou.

Richters were Gold Clown winners that year.

That was a big part of the reason

that they were booked on the tour

All the acts had either Gold or Silver

I remain the only non performer with

my own honorary Gold Clown gifted to

me by the Prince's committee

I am very happy it's the

original pattern clown

No idea why or when they

changed to the newfangled
