.T. Flea:
The owner of "P.T. Flea's Circus," this quintessential schmoozer is always on the lookout for the next best act, the next best deal, the next best anything. That's why, in a desperate attempt to save his circus, he invents an act called "Flaming Death." What's a few third-degree burns when there's money to be made?

Voice Artist: John Ratzenberger


Heimlich:
He's big. He's green. He's ... Heimlich! This roly-poly performer is always on the lookout, trying to find a good snack and trying NOT to become one!

Though he may look like a real pushover, Heimlich has a heart of gold and nerves of steel. He'll gladly use his plump, juicy body as a decoy if it means saving a friend. His girth may get him into a few tight spots, but inside this creepy, crawly circus star is a beautiful German butterfly.

Voice Artist: Joe Ranft


Francis:
Francis, the ladybug, can't understand why everone assumes he's a girl. Francis may look dainty on the outside, but he's as tough as nails on the inside.

Despite misunderstandings about his gender, Francis keeps on performing as part of the clown trio in P.T. Flea's menagerie, even if this means having to ward off unwanted advances from audience members!

Voice Artist: Denis Leary


Rosie:
Don't be fooled by the black widow's creepy reputation: This spider equestrienne and her trusty beetle steed, Dim, are a mild-mannered pair.

Voice Artist: Bonnie Hunt


Slim:
This walking stick often plays the voice of doom, but when the going gets tough, Slim can be counted on to come through for his friends.

Voice Artist: David Hyde Pierce


Manny:
Manto the Magnificent is a pompous praying-mantis magician who prays for a return to the good old days when audiences responded to his act. Self-absorbed and a bit of a hack, this faded star still thinks he's got the magic touch and is assisted in that illusion by his moth mate, Gypsy.

Voice Artist: Jonathan Harris
