Welcome to UniverSoul Life!
Welcome to our brand new blog UniverSoul Life! I'm Paula Witt, the publicist for the UniverSoul Circus and I'll be giving you a behind the scenes look at life at the UniverSoul Circus.
This is a photo of me right before one of our shows in the circus' hometown, Atlanta, GA.
We just finished an exciting run that included community appearances by our performers, a string of sold-out shows, live performances on WAGA-TV "Good Day Atlanta" and exciting performances by gospel star Canton Jones and rap legends Whodini. We are currently in Greenville, SC and will be headed to Raleigh, NC (March 12-March 16), Richmond, VA (March 19-March 23) and then New York City with Brooklyn (March 26-April 13), Queens (April 15-April 27) and the Bronx (April 29-May 4). There are so many people who work with the UniverSoul Circus.
This blog will allow us to share some of the spontaneous and sometimes bizarre behind the scenes happenings that take place during the show. But most importantly, we want you to be a part of UniverSoul Life!
Check back here regularly to see what's going on and be sure to check out other areas of our website http://www.universoulcircus.com.

WOW IS THE CIRCUS LIFE REALLY LIKE FUN? I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW HOW TOURING REALLY IS,ESPECIALLY THE UNIVERSOOOUUUUULLLL CIRCUS!!! THE BEST SHOW ON EARTH
HEY THIS IS ZEKE FROM THE UNIVERSOUL CIRCUS AND I DO HOPE THAT YOU ALL KEEP CHECKING BACK EVERY NOW AND THEN TO SEE WHATS HAPPENING BEHIND THE SCENES HERE AT THE SOUL CIRCUS.IT'S THE "UNIVERSOUL LIFE".
My name is Angela from Torchlight Academy and I want to let you know that the show was perfect. I have never been to a circus before and words cannot describe how I loved the show. I live in Canada for many years and have never seen nothing like this. YOU ARE SECOND TO NONE!!!!!
The show is great, keep you entertained. I have been attending for the past 3 years with my son and now daughter and it gets better and better. There is only complaint -- I WANT TO TAKE PICTURES for scrapbooking - come on now -- LOL!!!
Wut Up! This is Lexie fom E-Town North Carolina I wanted to let u know that your show wuz Da BomB! I really enjoyed the show it was the best show I ever seen before. today was my second time going.I also wanted ro let u know dat you have da best ring master ever. Keep doin yo thang Tony Ton. Big up's to sidekick Zeke. Holla!
My family and I have attended the Universoul Circus for the past ten years. We always look forward to the circus coming to North Carolina. But the last two years the circus has not lived up to what it once was. Where was Onionhead,you can't have a circus without the clown playa. I miss Country and Lucky dancing. There once was more old school r&b and old school gospel. Where are the lessons that went along with each act? I would love to see Cal or Shuckey Duckey back as ringmasters. Zeke and Maybelle were off the hook. But no matter what Universoul has to offer we will be back next year.
I have been a loyal supporter of the circus for the past 4-5 years & I have drawn others to the performances. I must say although you are still the best circus I have ever experienced; I did miss the big finale. I remember black Jesus coming out to I am here by R. Kelly. I remember the ring master with the fly gold hat. I remember when Zeke wasn't there & I am happy he seems to be back to stay. I know everything must change but the finale I feel is key to your circus. Whether it be moral or christian based. I also missed the clown like jokesters that danced or played basketball or whatever. I did however notice you had more animal acts this year. What I am saying is I want it all! You gave it to me for many years... You raised the bar & now I expect nothing less.
We saw the show Saturday, March 15, 2008 in Raleigh, NC.
All & all I still love you guys. Great show ...just remember what makes you great!
I attended the ^:30 pm show on Sunday and to my surprise I was a little disappointed in the beginning and ending. I have not missed a show in the last three years and found the closing, especially with the Caribbean music and dancing to be spectacular. I did not feel that emotion this Sunday when I attended. Don't get me wrong the show was fabulous, but I was looking for that spectacular ending.
WOW oh WOW did my family and I enjoy the UniverSoul Circle!!!! This was our first time to your wonderful show. My daughter is 4yrs old and she didn't know what to watch first. I just can't stop talking about our/my experience to all my family and friends. I pray that you continue to share such a wonderful venue with us all.May God Bless you from Durham, NC
I'm from FRIENDS Association for Children agency and we took 220 people to the opening UniverSoul Circus show this morning in Richmond, VA. We have attended for several years, but think that this is by far the best UniverSoul Circus show we've seen. The past years were good, but this was awesome! I pray that everyone who attends the upcoming shows in Richmond, VA and elsewhere enjoy the show as much as we did.
Thank you for continuing to bring great entertainment and talent to Richmond, VA. God Bless!

Sorry Guys. I thought you dropped the ball this year when you came to Richmond. Where were the colorful costumes? What happened to professionals instead of depending so much on the audience? I sure hope next year will be a lot better.
The show was a blast. This was my family and I first time ever going to a soul circus, and I can't imagine anything better for entertainment. The ring master & Zeke really brought the show together. The grand Finale of the show was the romance scene. My family and I are still talking about it. We saw the show in Raleigh N.C. March 15,2008. We can't wait until next year. Please make sure that the ringmaster and Zeke are their also make sure the romance scene is a part of the show.
We have attended the circus every year. My family had so much fun. Thanks for keeping the family atmosphere. Zeke and Tony the best.
THIS WAS MY 5TH YEAR ATTENDING THE UNIVERSOUL CIRCUS. WE WERE THERE ON OPENING DAY LAST WEDNESDAY IN RICHMOND VA, AND AGAIN ON SATURDAY EVEINIG ALONG WITH 20 FAMILY MEMBERS. EVERYONE HAD SUCH A GOOD TIME THAT THEY WERE TELLING OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT THE CIRCUS. SO NEXT YEAR WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE PEOPLE COMMING TO SEE THE GREAT PERFORMANCES. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND GOD BLESS!!!!!
A perfect show!!!!!! My daughters and I attend the show every year in Brooklyn. We love it! There is no other show like it. Keep up the good work. Quick question...there is a beat(song) that the DJ plays just before the end of intermission. Ringmaster Tone and the DJ was grooving to this beat when I attended last Sunday. I need to know the name of that song. Thanks.
THE SHOW WAS GREAT!!!!! I LIKE HOW THEY GOT THE AUDIENCE TO INTERACT IN THE SHOW.P.S TONY TONE IS GORGEOUS LOL!!!
I saw the UniversalSoul Circus about 8 yrs. as an adult and has been impressed with it ever since! Now that I am a grandmother, I make it my business to take my grand kids whenever it comes to N.Y. and it is the best show that they could ever experience ! My hats off to all of the cast & crew !

Hey my name is Sloan and my children and I have been attending the Universoul Circus since it came to Queens and we love it. This year my son (Bri) was in the dance contest on April 22nd and it was the greatest experience ever. I know cameras are not allowed but if this show was recorded PLEASE can someone send me a copy of my son dancing the memory is priceless.Sloan1107@aol.com
Awesome and Amazing Show! My wife brought me to the show so that we could relax and unwind from our crazy hectic New York schedules. It did the trick. I'm very proud of Mr. Walker and his entire organization, and wish them many many years of continuously growing success!!!
WELL I HAVE 2 SAY THE SHOW WAS GOOD BUT THE TIGERS, THEY SHOULD HAD DID MORE STUFF AND THE GOSPAL PART I THANK THERE SHOULD HAD BEEN MORE PEOPLE IN THAT PART.WELL IT WAS MY FIRST YEAR THERE I STILL HAD A GOOD TIME SEE NEXT YEAR GOD BLESS
Dorothy said: THE CIRCUS WAS WONDERFUL THIS YEAR. WE LOVE THE NEW RINGMASTER AND ZEKE IS THE HIT OF THE RING. MY ONLY PROBLEM WAS THAT DOUBLE TICKETS WERE PRINTED WITH THE SAME NUMBER FOR OUR SETTING. MY AUTISTIC STUDENTS COME EVERY YEAR AND HAVE A GREAT TIME. WE MISSED THE CARRIBEAN DANCERS ON STILTS. CONGRATULATIONS ON 15 YEARS OF SUCCESS. UNIVERSOU CIRCUS IS REALLY THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH.
THANK YOU

I was in awe by the beauty of the silk rope performers and was elated to hear that the young man was from the Bronx. Great job and next year my Granddaugther will be able to appreciate it..See you then..
Today was my first time going to the UnverSoulCircus and man did I have a ball. I laughed so hard and really enjoyed all the talented acts from all over the world. I can't wait til they come back to the New Jersey area.
