Under the big top

Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey is a beloved circus act in the United States, and now audiences have even more to look forward to, with top Chinese acrobats joining the show. Amy He reports from New York.

In Brooklyn, New York, there is a circus tradition that stretches back a century, so the borough always gives a warm welcome to the Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey circus when it comes to town.

The crowds were especially excited by its last visit, when the performers were joined by the Chinese National Acrobatic Troupe.
