Zoppé: An Italian Family Circus is returning to Tucson for a 14th year with "old-world" acts to grace their big top in the MSA Annex from Friday, Jan. 10 to Sunday, Jan. 26. "The most important thing to know about our show is that it is an intimate family experience," circus co-director Jeanette Prince-Zoppé told the Tucson Sentinel.

"Of course it's entertaining, but more than that, it's a story. And it's a piece of art and history and a legacy that is seven generations deep. And all of that is brought forth into our intimate home-like setting." The company was born in Venice, Italy, almost 200 years ago.
