HUGO, Oklahoma, has been the winter home of traveling circuses since the 1930s, and the eternal home for some of those who spent their life under the big top. The Showmen’s Rest section of Mount Olivet Cemetery is bordered by sculpted tusked elephants on granite pedestals and each grave colourfully designed to show the personality and trade of the interred.
Hugo is still “Circus City, USA,” as its welcome sign proclaims, with the Kelly-Miller and Carson & Barnes circuses currently calling the town home. There’s also the Endangered Ark Foundation with the second largest herd of Asian elephants in the United States, and in driveways around town you can see circus trailers alongside pickup trucks, and maybe a trapeze in the front yard. Yet oddly, the spirit of the circus may be most visibly alive in the cemetery, where the memories of these circus performers are joyfully celebrated in their final tributes. Below are some photographs from my visit to this cemetery for “all showmen under God’s big top”:
