In his Travelling Show, he performs magic, juggling, unicycling, balance, and illusion acts from his trailer turned vintage theater. His passion for the business was passed down by his family, as his mother was a trapeze artist and his father was the ringmaster of a small touring circus. In this charming film by Rhys Edwards, Mr Alexander talks about his life on the road with his two dogs and the joy of his chosen profession. “I don’t do it for the money. I’ve never done anything for the money. I do it for the love and the joy of it all.” Mr. Alexander's Travelling Show: http://mralexander.co.uk/ Follow Rhys Edwards: http://www.rhysedwards.tv/ https://vimeo.com/rhysedwards A Look at the Whimsical Life of a Traveling Showman | Short Film Showcase    • A Look at the Whimsical Life of a Travelin...   National Geographic    / natgeo
