Jenny Vidbel and her trained horses, prancing ponies, and perky pups are part of the Big Apple Circus coming to Lake George in July as part of the group’s 35th anniversary season\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Big Apple Circus is making its second
\nappearance in Lake George, presenting Legendarium,
\nfrom July 13-28 at Charles R. Wood
\nPark.<\/p>\n

At Legendarium, people will experience the
\nnostalgic thrills of bygone big-top circus tents
\nand get a first-hand view of daredevils and
\nclowns from another era.<\/p>\n

Circus officials said in the 35th anniversary
\nseason production, no seat is more than 50 feet
\nfrom the performer.
\n“Travel back to when circus traditions were born and witness incredible acts that would have had the villagers chattering for days. The courageous mid-air flips and catches of a man on the trapeze … a swaying wire act of sure-footed strength and stability. The dizzying delights of a daring inventor in his tumbling, twirling hoop,” officials said in a new release.<\/p>\n

Performers from around the world create the Big Apple Circus under the artistic direction of Guillaume Dufresnoy for the 2012-13 season show Included in that group are:<\/p>\n
