Activities

While in Coketown, don't forget to...

Visit Mr. Sleary's Circus! This circus has everything from the "graceful equestrian Tyrolean flower act" (12) to the hilarious clown Signor Jupe and his "highly trained performing dog Merrylegs" (11).  Jupe is best known for his ability to form a fountain of solid iron in mid-air, "a feat never before attempted in this or any other country" (11)! "The clashing and banging band attached to the horse-riding establishment" (11) is a must-see, accompanying the performers with the perfect soundtrack to elicit suspense, fear, and joy. Seeing this circus is a once in a lifetime chance, and one you should certainly not miss.
