Program Description
Magician and storyteller William Pack takes us on a fantastical journey through the history of the circus, from Phil Astley's creation of the modern circus in 1768 to Dan Rice, "the most famous man you've never heard of," to the incredible feud between P.T. Barnum and the Ringling Brothers. We'll hear stories of triumph, disaster, and grand adventure. Brought to you in partnership with River Forest Township.
