It’s not your father’s circus of days gone by, but Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus is back! All new and revamped, Ringling Bros “The Greatest Show on Earth” returns to Boston, finally. Get all the information, including a link for tickets here.
If you remember, back in 2017, Ringling Bros, and Barnum & Bailey’s circus days ended. Amid financial problems and pressure from animal activists groups, the company rolled up the big tent, as reported by NPR. It was a legendary run that lasted 152 years. Known for bringing elephants, lions and death defying acts to cities and towns across America, the business folded. That is, until now.
The 2023 North American tour of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey’s “The Greatest Show On Earth” has found a new life. And the life of the party is human. All new and reimagined, this version features people in the three rings. This revived and modernized take on the circus will showcase rare talents and skills and amazing exhibitions to enthrall today’s audiences.

4. Improv Asylum
216 Hanover St. Boston (North End)
It’s really a perfect place to see a show. In the heart of the North End is a small “basement” club with sketch comedy and improvisational comedy. You really get bang for your buck at Improv Asylum, especially considering your extensive dining options before or after a show. You can chose to be a part of the show, or stay quiet. They will ask for participants. I love this place.
