Best Answer

A circus, in modern usage, is defined as a touring company of professional entertainers such as clowns and acrobats and also performing animals. The term also refers to a single performance given by such entertainers. In antiquity, a circus was a large oval structure, usually without a roof, with tiered seating for public entertainment. In Great Britain, the term refers to a circular space where streets intersect. The term is also used informally to describe a situation which is characterized by disorder or confusion.
