Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
Now this is a long way from Martinez, California.
It's even farther from Tipperary The Bay Front Center in St Pete is sadly long gone
Barbara's costume & Anna May's blanket are on permanent display in the Ringling Circus Museum in Sarasota as was shown here just 2 days ago
I think it might have been Chico in Buckles Brigade that referred to this Spec as Sodomy on the High Seas (otherwise known as King Neptune)
Didn't Tito Gaona play King Neptune?
Yes indeed Roger
3 of the 8 bubble machines that I designed & built for this production have been blowing bubbles at the top of the musical "Wicked" for more than 16 years until the 12th of March at the Gershwin Theater on Broadway & I hope will continue at some date They have certainly earned their keep since 1978 We still blend the solution by hand in our shop with an ancient formula given to me from a Prop Master long after he retired Bless Martin Baker
