Symphony in Silver




Despite the name in looping silver letters on the gate, the cirque is often referred to by many other names. Cirque d’Illusion. Cirque des Etoiles. Cirque d’Illumination. Even Cirque des Lucioles after the tent filled with fireflies. Yet many patrons still smile and whisper to themselves the name they see atop the gate as they enter, a symphony of “Cirque de la Lune” that is swept away by the nighttime wind.
