More Flavor: Spectacle Circus Amok presents Sub-Prime Sublime

  • Picture-6_large

After nearly two decades of daring, New York's own Circus Amok still overwhelms the senses with its boisterous take on traditional three-ringers. Offbeat, political, and, above all, unpredictable, the troupe spends each September touring our city's squares and parks, spreading its colorful, PSA-meets-P.T. Barnum message on topics like police brutality and public education. Today, the merry pranksters regale park patrons with 17 colorful, message-sending acts on foreclosures and debt in 59 minutes. Look out for the rowdy Circus Amok Band, the woman with a beard (not bearded lady!), and a few acrobatic economists.
