As an old circus performer myself I have been trying to track down some old circus friends that I have lost touch with. We toured together in the Far East with Chipperfields back in the 80's. They are an Italian family by the name of Perris. They performed a foot juggling and foot ladder balanceing routine. There where 3 sisters, Mom and Dad and a son named Sergio (whom I became close friends with). Do you know of them? Bit of a long shot I know. Many thanks.
