Kelly Miller Circus Returns to Rising Sun on April 29, 2009

The Kelly Miller Circus returns to Rising Sun on April 29 with two family-friendly shows that will thrill everyone with amazing acrobatics and aerial tricks. Clowns are on hand doing silly things that will fill the tent with laughter. The elephants, camels, donkeys, horses, and more will perform their act that will delight all ages.

The day begins as the sun peeks over the hills of Kentucky. Trucks rumble into town headed for River Front Park, and people begin gathering, drawn to the commotion. Animals and equipment begin pouring from the vehicles while people rush about preparing for another day at the Kelly Miller Circus.

As if it has been choreographed, everyone steps in time and knows exactly what to do. Before your eyes, a whole magical world rises up and in just a couple of short hours a vacant lot has been transformed into a wondrous sight of brightly colored tents, animals from far away lands, and amazing equipment from which daring people will fly through the air to delight and fascinate you.
