I enjoyed the Thrill Extravaganza circus and stunt show at the Santa Cruz County Fair this past Saturday. Saturn Garcia kept the crowd engaged while also performing on the big stage. They packed a decent set of circus acts into a 30-minute slot (happening multiple times per day as part of the fair's daily schedule). This included a high dive, putting on acrobatic moves and balancing blindfolded on a rotating space wheel, a rare upside down walk along a track up above reaching for the sky, and motorcycle action inside the globe of death reaching 50 mph in the steel spherical cage. They only did a few stunts with the limited time they had, but some were quite unique (that's coming from someone who goes to a lot of circus shows and events). It wasn't perfect, but I appreciated the lighthearted entertainment with a bit of a thrill factor incorporated into the program. read more
