A comment on this post made me think of circus as the C theme for this round of A-Z Sunday Stamps. 

This is a favourite theme, and I had already published some circus stamps. For example, here (EUROPA stamps 2002), here (Barnum and Bailey Circus), here (White clowns) and here (Circus stamps and postcards from Monaco).
