The
World's Largest Circus Under The Big Top is Coming to Newark August 22, 23 & 24!
SEE AMAZING FEATS
FROM RINGSIDE SEATS!
In addition to acrobats, denizens of clown alley and daredevil aerial
artists, the 2007 edition of Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars features more
than a score of educated animal performers, including elephants, horses and
poodles who have as much fun performing as audiences have watching them.
What you see will astonish you, but what you don’t notice is equally
amazing.
With eyes focused on the “Biggest Stars on the Planet” and lovely elephant
rider, Jessica Kramer in petite contrast to her massive mount, circus
patrons witness pachyderms Tina and Jewel command the spotlight. Seldom do
they note trainer Will Jacobs, who stands quietly in the shadows while his
oversized pupils dominate the ring. Will feels comfortable assuming the role
of “most forgettable performer” at the Cole Bros. Circus. “People come to
see the elephants, not me,” says Jacobs, “and Tina and Jewel not only know
their routine but love to perform on their own, so I let them!”
Equestrian expert Lyuba Tchepiakova schools her equine students to refrain
from exhibiting one natural behavior while in the ring. “Putting it
delicately, we teach them to go to the bathroom before they enter the Big
Top!” Even Lyuba was surprised when her youngest horse, still in training,
taught himself to attend to personal hygiene matters by observing his older
stable mates obtain rewards for doing their duty. “He watched the other
horses get their carrots,” she says, “completed his business, and looked at
me as if to say, okay, I did what I was supposed to do, where’s my carrot?”
 While
viewing the Abuhadbas’ assortment of energetic poodles ranging from
miniatures to standards,
audiences don’t consider the enormous amount of effort and time invested in
making the poodles picture-perfect for their turn in the ring. Dog grooming
is a full time job in itself for the Abuhadba family. More than a dozen
poodles share living quarters with the Abuhadbas, enjoying a carpeted,
outdoor exercise yard that moves from town to town. “Training the dogs is
the easy part,” claims Isabel Abuhadba, “as they learn quickly, remember
everything, and enjoy showing off and earning praise, not to mention treats!
