    The core performers and owners of the circus are Laurel also known as Ember and Richard Perales also known as The Great Baldini. The circus has can perform for adults or families, altering their shows to be appropriate for either. Performers hired by the troupe are paid a fair cut of money from ticket sales or venue pay. The circus performers sometimes wear several hats and are expected to be drama free. There is a no drinking and drugging policy during events to avoid injury.
