Circus performers
« on: Wednesday 20 February 08 14:00 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone tell me who the artistes were who  made up The Flying Wallendas in the 1934, 1935 seasons with Bertram Mills  at Olympia or on tour? I am particularly interested in the English girl who was the girl on top. Thank you.

Hello macg

Have you looked at the Flying Wallendas website? www.wallenda.com/index.html
