Diana Hardman will be talking about her uncle Barrie Walls and his life in the Circus. Not for the feint hearted!
“Barrie was one of the most intriguing and versatile of circus performers in a career spanning over three decades,” Diana explains. “He was a Fakir whose act involved a ladder of swords, a bed of nails, and becoming a human pincushion. He was an Illusionist, a fire eater of great talent, a master of disguise and a sign writer for the circus and fairground industry.”
