BAC rolls out the red carpet for its celebrated superstar "Grandma" and brings celluloid dreams into the circus ring. Barry Lubin came up with the title "Grandma Goes To Hollywood" and no doubt the star of the current edition. Don't miss the show when it plays your area...Go to bigapplecircus.org for the complete touring route. Second and third in the photo contest was also won by Paul Gutheil.
