QUÉ SIGNIFICA CIRCUS EN INGLÉS

Circo

Circus

Un circo es una compañía de artistas que pueden incluir payasos, acróbatas, animales entrenados, actos de trapecio, músicos, hoopers, caminantes de cuerda floja, malabaristas, unicyclists y otros manipuladores de objetos y artistas acrobáticos. El término "circo" también describe el desempeño que ha seguido varios formatos a través de sus 250 años de historia moderna. A Philip Astley se le atribuye ser el "padre" del circo moderno cuando abrió el primer circo en 1768 en Inglaterra. Los primeros circos fueron casi exclusivamente demostraciones de habilidades ecuestres con algunos otros tipos de actos para vincular las actuaciones de equitación. Las actuaciones se desarrollaron significativamente a lo largo de los próximos cincuenta años, con representaciones de batallas teatrales a gran escala convirtiéndose en una característica importante. El formato "tradicional", mediante el cual un maestro de ceremonias introduce una variada selección de actos que realizan principalmente actos coreográficos a la música tradicional, desarrollados en la última parte del siglo XIX y continuaron casi universalmente siendo el estilo principal del circo hasta los años setenta.

A circus is a company of performers that may include clowns, acrobats, trained animals, trapeze acts, musicians, hoopers, tightrope walkers, jugglers, unicyclists and other object manipulation and stunt-oriented artists. The term 'circus' also describes the performance which has followed various formats through its 250 year modern history. Philip Astley is credited with being the 'father' of the modern circus when he opened the first circus in 1768 in England. Early circuses were almost exclusively demonstrations of equestrian skills with a few other types of acts to link the horsemanship performances. Performances developed significantly through the next fifty years, with large scale theatrical battle reenactments becoming a significant feature. The 'traditional' format, whereby a ringmaster introduces a varied selection of acts that mostly perform choreographed acts to traditional music, developed in the latter part of 19th century and continued almost universally to be the main style of circus up until the 1970s.
