About this book

Freaks & Fire: The Underground Reinvention Of Circus by Hill, J. Dee. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781932360523.

Freaks and Fire is a free-falling leap into the world of radical circus. Beyond the historical confines of Ringling Bros. and scorning the big-budget schemes of Cirque du Soleil, these tightly knit troupes focus on bringing audiences thrills spun around an ideological center. From the sick-out shockfests of the infamous Jim Rose Circus to the anarchic burlesque of the Bindlestiff Family Circus, J. Dee Hill brings readers into the diverse and all-consuming world of circus as commentary, lifestyle, and play.
