When I was little, circuses didn’t come to our town very often. But one day, one finally arrived. That same day, my family and I went there… and that same day, I got lost.
I was around six or seven years old. Somehow, I ended up in a restricted area for visitors — the place where the circus troupe rested backstage.
When they found a little lost girl, they started looking for my mother. But while waiting, they let me stay with them and gave me pencils and paper to draw on.
And now I keep thinking… what if that circus had been The Freak Circus?
