“American Circus in Britain” at Gargalhadas na Lua


Uncle Sam’s Great American Circus has been entertaining crowds for over 30 years. It is magic – a vacant lot is transformed into a thriving village of dance and wonder under the Big Top. The circus is an elusive character, rife with complexities and contradictions. My photographs are portraits of the many unique individuals whose paths have converged at this time and place; a period of sixty minutes in the Autumn of 2010 in the town of Ellesmere Port, Northwest Britain.
