The word “cirque” originates from Europe’s entertainment culture and translated, means “circus.” In 1874, Jules Verne built, designed and operated the largest circus in France, Cirque Municipal. Since then, many Eastern bloc countries have produced shows incorporating novelty and variety acts together with what Americans today know as circus artistry. These shows were presented on stages in theaters and single-ring tents, developing into some of the world’s most prestigious and elaborate entertainment extravaganzas of modern times.
