Ballet - Circus - Comedians - Dancers - Entertainers - Plays

Feb. 26 Banner Forbutt's job is always in the balance; Riding a one wheel cycle needs a nice sense of balance, keeping himself eight feet off the ground, up a slender shaft mounted on a single wheel, is a constant source of amusement to those who see Brighton's ice circus, and to local citizen who are now getting used to seeing him make his way to and from the theater on his strange vehicle. The local police wave his on just as if he was any other cyclist, and don't be surprised if you ride on the top deck of a bus and he leans over the side and asks you for a light. The technique of balancing, and riding backwards and forwards on the special ly made cycle took Banner years of thought, experiment and practice. Today, it comes as second nature to him. Something to make a note about; You don't have to be a P.C. 49 to know that this is something to report to the Statics. Banner Forbutt, trick cyclist of Tom Arnold's Ice Circus thinks that his one wheel cycle takes up less traffic space in busy Brighton there ought fares and uses it to get to and from the theater
