Holidays, Festivals, and Special Meals (Danny's Fried Chicken and Gravy)

Dave Rabinowitz (presenter); Sarah Chapman Just because they're on the road doesn't mean circus performers don't celebrate special occasions and holidays like everyone else. Come learn about the barbecues that are often prepared for Fourth of July or the distinctive meals made whenever the show is over and it's time to move onto the next town. It wouldn't be a celebration without the food, so come see how the cooks make it all happen. Sarah Chapman joined Sailor Circus in Sarasota, Florida, at age twelve and has performed aerial acts for twenty years. She has since written and published four circus-themed cookbooks and a memoir.
