This weekend, The Great Benjamins Circus is taking over the Village of Alexis. With seven performances scheduled across three days, Artist Director and Performer Eva Rodriguez shares what attendees will enjoy and how The Great Benjamins Circus came to be:

“We are an international cast that travels all through the United States and Canada. Our cast is international, and we are from Dallas, Texas. It started with two brothers that have been doing this their whole life and have just continued that tradition. We have a lot of traditional service acts under our big top, we have aerialists, dancers, jugglers, clowns, acrobats, but this year we have a couple of featured acts. We have Russian Swing, Wheel of Destiny, Globe of Death, and the Great American Cyclone.”

Show times for The Great Benjamins Circus, Under the Big Top in Alexis are 7:30 pm on Friday, November 15th, 1:30, 4:30, and 7:30 pm on Saturday the 16th, and 1:30 and 4:30pm on Sunday, November 17th. Tickets can be purchased online at benjaminscircus.com or at the onsite box office.
