[center][I]This rp is always open. Post Character Sheet for approval. Must be able to write solid paragraphs, minimum 1 per post.[/I][/center] [b]Welcome to Cirkus Azyl! The Circus Asylum show created by Czech artist Radek Zelenka.[/b] Radek Zelenka grew up traveling Europe with his family in a small yet fantastic and eccentric circus show that included nomads from all walks of life as their performers, usually performers who needed a second chance or a place to call home. When his parents died, Radek desired to continue their show but on a much grander scale. He created his show [I]Cirkus Azyl[/I] and recruited the best performers around, albeit all with their own baggage or eccentricities. To Radek, as long as they could perform to his standards, they were welcome. Cirkus Azyl has been a raging attraction for the past 5 years, their show and training facility, although separate locations, based out of London. Performers are welcome to stay in the 5 story training facility and are only deducted a small amount from their pay for their rent. Radek still stands by his belief that his performers can be from all walks of life, despite their past or their problems. All he expects from them is perfection in his shows.
