SPEAKBEASTY 
I am so so excited for a wizarding circus! I think that it’s going to be witches and wizards running it as a show for No-Majs and pretending it’s all “the magic of the theater” as opposed to, you know, just magic. It may be that they have permits, etc., from each country they perform in, but they may also just perform under the radar. When you’re in a travelling show, since you’re never in one place for too long, it’s hard for the authorities to catch up.
I hope they also show a magical-people-only circus, because that has got to be some next level stuff.
