SUMMARY OF PERFORMERS

Joseph Bauer, Jr., Circus Sarasota Ringmaster - A star of Bauer's Circus Maximus and a 15th generation member of one of Switzerland's oldest circus families, Bauer is a Sarasota native and veteran Circus daredevil.

Yeromenko - A prize-winning, four-man acrobatic team of superbly trained athletes from Ukraine, Yeromenko, brings strength and agility to the circus stage as they vault from one point to another of the three-leveled horizontal bar.

Daniel Hochsteiner, Juggler Extraordinaire, has achieved star status the world over with fast paced, athletic juggling winning gold and silver medals at Festivals in China, Korea and France. Juggling Tennis racquets, Hochsteiner is one of the most innovative, skilled artists performing today.  His astounding technique and ability separate him from all others. 

Dick Monday - This clown's masterful hand has guided Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Clown College and created Slappy's Playhouse a family theatre in Dallas. He continues to clown with Wife, Tiffany, aka "Slappy", as the New York Goofs, a troupe of physical comedians devoted to preserving nearly forgotten performance skills. Dick's film and TV credits include Into the Night with Rick Dees, Brain Donors, My Life, Love and Greed, The Late show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Rosie O'Donnell Show and Woody Allen's Sweet and Lowdown.

Andre Markov - It's a delightfully charming show in the Elegant Russian Style, with highly trained canines performing with balletic style seemingly on their own under the knowing gaze of trainer extraordinaire, Andre Markov.

The Poemas are a traditional family in the Circus world - they juggle their kids! Watch Dad Adrian toss and tumble his daughters on his feet for a classic Risley act circus thrill.

We know you'll enjoy "Silhouette In Motion" with Ian Garden.  Born in Toronto, Ian took the reins of the family circus in 1954. In 1987, he and his wife Micheline retired and moved to Florida, where he returned to his love of training animals. Ian has trained dogs, ponies, horses, llamas, camels & zebras for major circuses throughout North America.

And flying high above them all will be our Queen of the Air, the muse of Circus Sarasota, Dolly Jacobs. Her artistry in the air is a magical wonder that never ceases to hypnotize.
