The excellent ETHEL New Music string quartet pays tribute to the now-shuttered Ringling Bros. & Barnum and Bailey Circus with this multi-media exploration of the circus and the culture that had sustained it.  Set to a score of the quartet's own devising, the show features archival footage and first-hand recollections of circus performers.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  The spot near the Harvey that most closely approximates the fun of the circus is Miss Ada.
