Sunday night at Coney Island, USA, was a very special night for me and a friend visiting from Michigan. He had the special opportunity to view the terrific ‘Sideshow by the Seashore’ extravaganza, featuring the talents of Cyclone Jack, Maggie McMuffin, Obsidian Absurd, Alaska the Lost Boy, and Kita St. Cyr. Here are a few photographs capturing the unique performances by these professional sideshow performers.
