For many people, the circus, with its clowns, exotic beasts, and other colourful iconography, is lighthearted entertainment. For Greg Renoff and other scholars, the circus and its social context also provide a richly suggestive repository of changing attitudes about race, class, religion, and consumerism. The Big Tent relates the circus experience from the perspectives of its diverse audiences, telling what locals might have seen and done while the show was in town.
