The UniverSoul circus ? the first and only black-owned circus in America, juggles and performs amazing feats this week as it embarks on its largest production ever, bringing 15 acts to Baltimore.

Hold your breath as French lion tamer Monique Angeon tames the wild beasts, or experience the dazzling Caribbean Heat Festival Dancers? as they teeter on stilts. Sit at the edge of your seat as the motorcyclists ride at top speed in the Bottomless Globe of Death, barely escaping fatal crashes.
