Circus Abyssinia: Tulu

The Ethiopian cirque troupe Circus Abyssinia, led by brothers Bibi and Bichu Tesfamariam, sets up tent at the New Vic in December for a family-friendly pageant of juggling, aerialism, acrobatics, African music and song. The show salutes the great Ethiopian long-distance runner Derartu Tulu, who won gold medals for her 10,000-meter runs at the 1992 and 2000 Olympics.
