Circus in Town, Rain but hopefuuly not on Third Thursday

06.18.2009 by Peter J. Crowley // 4 Comments


The Circus was in Manchester last week. I didn’t go but did shoot this poster in the window of an Antique Store as part of my Layered Life Portfolio. The Big Top itself is becoming an antique, a memory of times past. Manchester is one of a number of places I have called home. One of the old roads where my creative vision began.


In Willimantic this week the Circus has arrived and it almost always rains. It’s Third Thursday in Willimantic [when it almost never rains] with its swirls of color and the smell of food and sound of music fills the air. Frivolity reigns as these two kids ham it up for my camera in May. Let’s hope for a break in the clouds and a street full of happy folks. enjoy pjc

    Guess what? The night of the circus, it didn't rain…but it washed out Third Thursday.

    What is this world coming to??

    May I once again point out the brilliance of my theory that carnivals, et al create rainclouds because of all the metal gear on the rides, cages, etc? It has to be true!
