Circuses have been around for a very long time. They probably began with the ancient Egyptians who loved to
show exotic creatures to their people. The ancient Greeks held chariot races and after that the Romans
developed the idea into a circus. They built huge stadiums where they held horse and chariot races and
exhibited wild animals such as elephants and lions. They also had jugglers and acrobats. Travelling gypsies
probably kept the circus skills alive and brought them to Europe in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. We
think that a Briton called Philip Astley started the first modern type of circus in 1768 when he performed
exciting tricks on horseback. Then he introduced jugglers and acrobats into his show and the modern circus was
born. By 1959 other circuses had started and the flying trapeze act was part of most shows. Today many people
do not like to see circuses using animals in their shows and Cirque du Soleil is one example. Cirque du Soleil
was started in Quebec in 1986 and its show is based on the gymnastic skills of its performers. They use fantastic
costumes and interesting lighting to make the show as exciting as possible.
