This summer I took my girls to the Big Apple Circus in Queens, New York and it was a night of family fun! Loving to travel as much as I do, I made a commitment to myself that this summer I was going to approach my own “backyard” of Long Island and surrounding areas, with the same passion as I do when I travel, by researching and experiencing all the sights and activities that are happening locally. At the top of my list was The Big Apple Circus.
I am not a patron of circuses that exploit and use exotic animals or have them doing unnatural things. But, after doing some research, I was fairly certain that this circus did not fall into that category and was willing to take a chance and see for myself. I was very pleased by what I found on all levels!
The Big Apple Circus has been around in New York City since 1977, and I’m ashamed to say, I had never seen it before this past weekend. A great deal has changed in the past 35+ years from its humble beginnings in Battery Park, to headlining at Damrosch Park at Lincoln Center, Manhattan and to traveling all around the United States and abroad. I was so out of touch with this New York-based event, that I was actually shocked to find out that the current location for which I would be purchasing tickets was right here in Queens at Cunningham Park.
As a teenager attending high school in Queens, Cunningham Park was a big hang out, so, it was actually a bit exciting to be returning there with my children, many years later, to see a show under the big top!
