The World of Wonders traveling tour appeared at the Nebraska State Fair, performing multiple shows each day and providing a wide range of entertainment for guests of all ages.
The 30-minute show is made up of 10 different performances, including fire eating, metal smashing and sword swallowing, this show is sure to be a crowd pleaser.
The cast of “World of Wonders” consists of just six performers and a few creatures, such as the two-headed turtle, that appear in the show.
The show has been running in some form or another for over 70 years, and owner Tommy Breen says he started out with something simple because he loves performing.
“The first trick I learned was putting a nail through my nose,” Breen says, “and when I showed it to my mother for the first time, she was blown away.”
Breen started performing because he loved entertaining people. “I wanted to entertain people,” Breen says, “so I thought why not run away from home and join the circus.”
The show is based in Florida and this is its first year performing at the Nebraska State Fair.
Performances are daily at 10:30am, 1pm and 3:30pm, plus a 6pm performance on Saturdays.
