But then Ringleader Riley stepped up as a leader. He knew that it was important to stay calm in times like this so that he could help his troupe stay focused on their goal - putting on an amazing show!

“Hey guys,” he said with a smile, “I know things aren’t going exactly as planned right now, but we can handle it! Let’s take some deep breaths and remember why we’re here today. We’re here because we love performing and making people happy!”

Some of the performers started to look at him more closely, taking in his words carefully. Others continued pacing back and forth nervously or sobbing quietly.

“Remember how much fun we had rehearsing all these acts? Think about all the hard work we put into perfecting each trick!” Riley continued talking in an enthusiastic tone. “Let’s use that energy right now! We have everything we need inside us already.”

Slowly but surely, Riley’s encouraging words began working its magic- one by one; some performers stopped pacing around while others wiped away their tears realizing the truth behind what Riley said.
