Come Look At The Freaks lyrics. Come Look At The Freaks Company: Come look at the freaks Come gape at the geeks Come examine these aberrations Their malformations Grotesque physiques Only pennies for peeks Come look at the freaks Come look at the freaks They'll haunt you for weeks Come explore why they fascinate you Exasperate you And flush your cheeks Come hear how love speaks Come look at the freaks The Boss: Ladies and gentlemen Step right up Right this way There is no wait We don't waste your time So little to pay Just one thin dime Gains you admission To my odditorium Never have you seen A comparable emporium Of wonders under one tent Your dime could not be better spent Come see a curious gal The Bearded Lady See a man Turned into a reptile As punishment for his sins Come hear the haunting song Of the Siamese twins Come see our elegant geek Refined but deadly Chicken necks delight his incisors Their heads decorate the mud His favorite cocktail drink? It's warm chicken blood! From the barren desert Of the heathen camel trade For our gentlemen friends The seraglio of a Hashemite sheik His harem was freed And we have found it quite unique For these girls are virgins still Had I arrived but an hour late That old sheik would have had his fill All: Come see God's mistakes The freaks God forsakes Take a look at the monster babies Dog men with rabies A bride of snakes The Boss: And we don't harbor fakes All: Come see God's mistakes The Boss: From the inky jungles Of the darkest continent You will witness first hand The ferocity of the Cannibal King We keep him chained up Because we know he's hankering From a taste of one of you And you are here for enlightenment Not as stock for cannibal stew Come look at the freaks Come gape at the geeks Come examine these aberrations Their malformations Grotesque physiques Only pennies for peeks Attractions: Come inside Curiosity satisfied Come! See the underside Inside! The Boss: Ladies and gentlemen, step right up! Right this way!

As the opening night of The Belmont Theater's "Side Show" quickly approaches, the activity in the black box studio has increased ten-fold. The set is becoming more elaborate, the swell of music from the orchestra now fills the air, and the costumes are coming together piece by piece. Tech week has begun, and it can both an exciting and somewhat stressful time for any production. As an actor, it can sometimes be difficult to lose sight of your character and even the meaning behind the show itself among the bustle and flurry of tech week. That is why I felt that the time had come to interview some of the actors in our show, in order to provide a bit of insight into their characters and to explain from their perspective the importance of a musical such as "Side Show. Olson brings the character of Buddy Foster to life, a self-proclaimed "song and dance man" working in the Orpheum Circuit. He and Terry Connors come across the Hilton sisters during one of their side show performances, and immediately recognize that they have the potential to become a remarkable vaudeville success. Buddy later proposes to Violet Hilton , only to realize that he is not attracted to her in the way he once believed he was. He explains that Buddy's sexual identity had to be kept a secret due to the public attitude at the time, and that he was forced to hide his feelings for his fellow performer, Ray.

The green room of The Belmont Theatre on August 21st, would have been a sight familiar to any actor who can recall the day their show closed. The cast and crew was gathered in a tight circle, clutching hands as the stage manager, Judi Miller, called places for the final time. Her announcement brought forth an eruption of cheers, a sound that mixed with the bittersweet feeling that had overcome us all at the thought of bringing our production of Side Show to life one last time. We gathered around the backstage microphone and waited in a heavy yet contented silence as the pre-recorded announcer introduced our show to the audience. There was a generous amount of applause from the crowd, and the orchestra plucked out the first few eerie notes of "Come Look at the Freaks.
