Moira Orfei(1931-2015)
- Actress
Her parents were Riccardo Orfei - the clown Bigolon - and Violetta
Arata - a Circus star, so Miranda Orfei's entire life was lived in a
circus. A simple, yet charismatic girl, full of energy, she started
working in one herself: horse rider, trapeze artist, and acrobat. Since
1962, she started her own circus, and her popularity remains unabated
to the present date (2002), in part helped by her numerous appearances
on television shows. After a car accident prevented her from further
acrobacies and arena shows with pigeos, horses and elephants, she kept
her presence with her faithful public.
