The Circus (2) : Season 30 Episode 8
PBS
Aired: October 9th, 2018 @ 9:00 PM EST on PBS
The Circus explores the history of this popular and American form of entertainment, from the first one-ring show at the end of the 18th century to 1956, when the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey big top was pulled down for the last time. For more than a century, the circus had brought daily life to a standstill. And then, when day broke, the miracle had vanished.
