Circus lovers roll up for first post-lockdown show

From the creator

One of the country's last remaining circuses has staged its first performance since virus restrictions came into force with a drive-in show in Tralee. Circus Vegas, run by the Courtney family, has been cocooning in Tralee, Co Kerry, since mid-March. Tralee was the last stop Circus Vegas made before the lockdown, and the final performance took place in a car park on the outskirts of the town on 12 March. Since then, the car park has been home to members of the Courtney family and the other performers who make up the circus. Now the family has removed the sides of the big top so cars can pull up alongside the circus ring for a special drive-in show - their first performance since lockdown.
