  • Linguistic Variation of the American Circus
    Abstract http://www.soa.ilstu.edu/anthropology/theses/burns/index.htm Through the "Front Door" to the "Backyard": Linguistic Variation of the American Circus Lisa Burns Illinois State University Anthropology Department Dr. James Stanlaw, Advisor May 1, 2003 Abstract The language of circus can be interpreted through two perspectives: the Traditional American Circus and the New American Circus. There is considerable anthropological importance and research within the study of spectacle and circus. However, there is a limited amount of academic literature pertaining to the linguistics and semiotics of circus. Through participant observation and interviewing, of both circus and non-circus individuals, data will be acquired and analyzed. Further research will provide background information of both types of circuses. Results indicate that an individual's preference can be determined based on the linguistic and semiotic terms used when describing the circus. Introduction Throughout my life, I have always been intrigued by the circus. As a result, I joined the Gamma Phi Circus, here at Illinois State University, in order to obtain a better understanding of circus in our culture. A brief explanation of the title is useful in understanding my paper. I chose the title "Through the 'Front Door' to the 'Backyard'" because "front door" is circus lingo for the doors that a person goes through on entering the tent. The word "backyard" refers to the area in which behind the tent where all the people in the production of the circus park their trailers. This title encompasses the range of information that I have gathered from performers, to directors, to audience members.

  • It's a Circus!
    Life? It’s A Circus! Teacher Resource Pack (Primary) INTRODUCTION Unlike many other forms of entertainment, such as theatre, ballet, opera, vaudeville, movies and television, the history of circus history is not widely known. The most popular misconception is that modern circus dates back to Roman times. But the Roman “circus” was, in fact, the precursor of modern horse racing (the Circus Maximus was a racetrack). The only common denominator between Roman and modern circuses is the word circus which, in Latin as in English, means "circle". Circus has undergone something of a revival in recent decades, becoming a theatrical experience with spectacular costumes, elaborate lighting and soundtracks through the work of the companies such as Circus Oz and Cirque du Soleil. But the more traditional circus, touring between cities and regional areas, performing under the big top and providing a more prosaic experience for families, still continues. The acts featured in these, usually family-run, circuses are generally consistent from circus to circus, with acrobatics, balance, juggling and clowning being the central skillsets featured, along with horsemanship, trapeze and tightrope work. The circus that modern audiences know and love owes much of its popularity to film and literature, and the showmanship of circus entrepreneurs such as P.T. Barnum in the mid 1800s and bears little resemblance to its humble beginnings in the 18th century. These notes are designed to give you a concise resource to use with your class and to support their experience of seeing Life? It’s A Circus! CLASSROOM CONTENT AND CURRICULUM LINKS Essential Learnings: The Arts (Drama, Dance) Health and Physical Education (Personal Development) Style/Form: Circus Theatre Physical Theatre Mime Clowning Themes and Contexts: Examination of the circus style/form and performance techniques, adolescence, resilience, relationships General Capabilities: Personal and Social Competence, Critical and Creative Thinking, Ethical Behaviour © 2016 Deirdre Marshall for Homunculus Theatre Co.

  • Adapted Equestrian Vaulting at the Cowichan Therapeutic Riding Association
    Adapted Equestrian Vaulting at the Cowichan Therapeutic Riding Association Equestrian vaulting is a gymnastic-type performance on a moving horse set to music, blending the traditions of dance and gymnastics with equestrian sport. Developed in postwar Germany as a means of introducing children to equestrian sport, vaulting has a well-established history in Europe and a strong following in the United States. Canada is beginning to grow the sport under VaultCanada – a discipline committee of Equine Canada (the national governing association for horse sport). Provincially, equestrian vaulting is managed by the Equestrian Vaulting Association of BC (EVA of BC). While not yet recognized as an Olympic sport, vaulting has been demonstrated at the 1984 and 1996 games and has been a component of the World Equestrian Games since 1990. The first full vaulting squad to represent Canada competed at the WEG in 2014. Unlike most riding in which the rider exerts primary influence on the horse’s “way of going” (speed, direction of travel, cadence, etc.), vaulting requires the horse to travel in a consistent circle (approximately 15-20 meters in diameter) controlled by a “lunger” (a trained equestrian positioned at the centre of the circle). A bridle or special lunging “cavesson” (headstall) and “lunge line” (long rope from headstall to handler) is used to communicate with the horse, replacing the action of reins. A specialized back pad and “surcingle” (a belly strap with hand grips and stirrup-like loops for the vaulter’s feet) is used instead of a saddle. Unlike traditional, independent equestrian disciplines, vaulters work in teams, assisting each other with maneuvers and creating a seamless multi-player aesthetic.
