‘I’m going to join the circus!’ was my childhood response to the ‘what are you going to be when you grow up?’ question. Stripes, sequins, candy floss and friendly elephants - what’s not to love? Throw in The Greatest Showman (my new favourite film) with Zendaya’s pink hair and Zac Efron’s…Zac Efron-ness (drool emoji) and you can see why the circus shouldn’t be confined to the Big Top.
