The Cirque Olympique de Paris of Monsieur Olivier, also known simply as Olivier's Circus,

The circus visited Port Elizabeth from June to August of 1862, performing in Sefton Parry's theatre there, followed by Grahamstown and then, in 1863, Cape Town (from the beginning of February to mid-April). Among their performances were a number of pantomimes as well.
