Dear @V_and_A - It’s also #FirstDayofCircus #Circus250 today - 250th anniversary of circus. You boast of holding most significant #circus archive. So please tweet about that too - as well as carrots @TristramHuntVA @theatrecurator @NewVicTheatre @PhilipAstleypro https://t.co/mEd66Z3PgV
Happy #InternationalCarrotDay! Anthony Holland created this costume design
in 1979. He regularly worked in London's West End, and also became well-known as a designer of ice shows and pantomimes.
A big thanks to circus collectors like Arthur Fenwick & archives who treasured the things meant to be thrown away - with out them #circus the truest ephemeral art form would be less tangible to us https://t.co/WqRT31j5jD @TWArchives #FirstDayOfCircus @Fairarchives #circus250

In the spirit of #FirstDayOfCircus #OnThisDay we thought we'd share a mock-up poster design that didn't quite make the final cut for our upcoming showcase. It harks back to a more traditional time in circus. #GetInvolved #CircusForAll #Circus250
Our contribution to #FirstDayOfCircus - the 250th anniversary of the birth of circus - is this centre spread of the 1964 souvenir programme for Billy Russell’s Circus Spectacular performed at Great Yarmouth Hippodrome. #Ephemera #Circus250
