How the incredibly backward vision and superlative genius of one man set into constant motion The Traveling
Circus That Time Forgot, Inc.
Put yourself in the man's oxfords for a moment. A graduate magna cure laude from one of the world's most prominent
business schools. Yet at the same time, a maverick at heart, independent of mind - reluctant to follow his blue-suited classmates
lockstep into the boardrooms of Corporate America. A man with vision - a vision as yet undefined, like a cloud, anticipating the
release of its own charge, the lightning bolt of an idea.
So what do you do if you're an out-of-work Harvard Business School grad with a dream? You go out and buy yourself a
circus, of course.
The idea, brilliant in its simplicity: to resurrect the classic traveling circus of old -blending innocence, flamboyance, and
nostalgia - and send it off to crisscross the highways and byways of this promised land of ours, visiting upon the masses thirsty
for good clean fun.
Sounds so simple, yet it is hard to imagine the tremendous quatum of resistance and awesome challenge that would confront
this would-be modem day P.T. Barnum. Immediately you would hear the voice of the nay-sayers, their prickly criticism
intended to burst your balloon, deriding such "pipe dreams" as low tech and low brow, logistically impossible, financially
unfeasible. And imagine the embarrassment of getting laughed out of the HARVARD CLUB!
Now, if you ever met Tomas Munrab, you'd know one thing for certain: the word "impossible" is unknown to him. Not through any lack of education, certainly, but by
willful, steadfast determination to overcome all obstacles in his life's path. A couple of years ago, it was this personal drive coupled with this vision that compelled Mr.
Munrab to invest in a small circus drive coupled with this and to completely transform it, thus embarking on the odyssey of The Traveling Circus That Time Forgot, Inc.
As President, Producer and Chief Entertainment Officer of The Traveling Circus That Time Forgot, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Munrab Enterprises, Inc.), Mr. Munrab
himself has overseen whole hog the acquisition of the capital, talent, and marketing savvy necessary for transforming his circus into the growing concern you see today.
"It takes some doing to maintain an exciting family show with a genuine, turn-of-the-century feel, while at the same time funding additions, improvements, and the
necessary attentions to investors," says Munrab, obviously proud of his mastery over his dual role as showman and businessman. "You could say I've had to deal with
Despite such good-natured banter from the Boss, it's clear from their much-practiced performances and their dogged dedication that the circus folk hold Mr. Munrab in high
esteem, even reverence.
And indeed who could help but have a great reservoir of admiration for the top talent of them all: Tomas Munrab, the man whose golden touch single-handedly put into
motion what is well on its way to becoming the entertainment miracle of the century, The Traveling Circus That Time Forgot, Inc.
THE AMAZING
GENATOSSIO BROTHERS
In a daring display of high wire skill and reckless abandon, the famed Genatossio Brothers thrill spectators with an array of
death-defying feats. Balanced on a thin steel cable 50 feet overhead, Carlo, Giuseppe, Antonio, and Stefano Genatossio play a
heart-stopping game of leapfrog, ride tandem bicycles, jump rope forward and backward, and perform a stupendous break-dance
finale.
The 28-year old Genatossio quadruplets, natives of Bologna, Italy, were spotted by Tomas Munrab at a county fair in
Upstate New York. After seeing their incredible performance, he asked the young men to join The Traveling Circus That Time
Forgot, Inc.
"Senza dubbio,"
says Carlo, "we accept without hesitation."
