NORWICH - The nationally recognized Zerbini Family Circus traveled to the Chenango County Fairgrounds on Tuesday, and presented the attending families a variety of acts, including a live animal show, sword and knife balancing, and multi-person juggling.

The circus held its show at the Chenango County Fairgrounds, and families lined up to enjoy the event.

“When the Ringling closed, everyone thought circuses [were] gone, but that is not the case,” said Zerbini Family Circus Owner Alain Zerbini during an interview last year.

Zerbini said the show is different from other circus acts because of how small the operation is, and the effort his family contributes to making everything work.
