نبذة مختصرة : The Loter family has been in show business for generations. Siblings, Faye, Terry, and William, born in the 1940s and 50s, shared stories of their childhood and described the various jobs they had in the circus from working in the cookhouse to swallowing fire to working the sideshow. Moira, daughter of Faye, talked about learning to perform and life on the circus. Alfredo, who married into the family, described being an aerialist and what it is like when a performer can no longer perform. ; The "Big Top" Show Goes On: An Oral History of Occupations Inside and Outside the Canvas Circus Tent aims to preserve the voices and experiences of those involved with the work culture associated with Hugo, Oklahoma’s tent circus tradition.
