For its 30th anniversary, the beloved Big Apple Circus has gone back to basics. Although the company, which has set up its big tent in City Hall Plaza for its annual visit, still has some thrilling routines, the emphasis this year is on the simple circus acts that make audiences double over with laughter.

TAKING your kids to a Broadway musical might seem like a no-brainer. What could be more of a treat than the excitement of lights going down, the curtain going up and actors performing live onstage? But beyond the Lion Kings, Mary Poppinses and Little Mermaids, the terrain gets more complicated.
