Disney Researchers Visit Circus World Museum

Disney researchers have visited Baraboo to learn what the circus was like between the 1890s and the early 1900s.  They visited the Circus World Museum before filming the upcoming movie, “Dumbo.”  Ringmaster Dave SaLoutos thinks the museum’s influence will be seen in the movie through its period-piece sets and costumes.  Circus World will celebrate its 60th anniversary this summer.  The Tim Burton-directed “Dumbo” movie opens in theaters nationwide Friday.
