Ward Hall on Sideshow Illusions & Oddities-Pt 2
Lane Talburt

Freaks were a vital part of the World of Wonders sideshow until the mid-1980s, as veteran showman Ward Hall explains in the conclusion of this two-part series. In early 2011 Hall became the first sideshow performer/owner to be inducted into the Circus Ring of Fame. His plaque is displayed at St. Armands Circle in Sarasota, FL.
