circus acts, even though most of
them deal with the: relationship

wife, Chairy. A ringmaster grandi-
loquently announces each chapter in
Barnum’s story-from his early
assembling of fraudulent sideshow
attractions to his partnership with
circus man James A. Bailey.

and aged knight who in the midst of

tion of the stirring hit song from the
