PhotoTO: Toronto International Circus Festival

You never know who you may see. Appearing at the Harbourfront today is a myriad of local and international talent from the Toronto International Circus Festival, brought to you by Zero Gravity Circus and Harbourfront Center. Acts ranging from new vaudeville to contortionists to acrobats are complemented by hands-on activities for kids. (And it's all free—but today's the last day to take it all in.)

Foo (a.k.a. Helen Donnelly) faces some serious competition in the highly competitive worm eating competition.

Trulee Odd (a.k.a. Paul Maskell) wins the fire eating contest.

Fesso teaches the next great circus talent.

Jenny and Sarah Haglund from Sweden contort in ways that should not be possible.

Dorinda Odbotham (aka, Susanna Hamnett) helpfully guides visitors to all the best entertainment.

Dr. Mysterion, Ph.D in ESP, reads minds, bends tableware with his mind, and generally astounds.
