Carnival opens on an empty stage.
A small figure in rather shabby clothes enters and the stage begins to light up as roustabouts carry in poles and canvas. A carnival is erected before our eyes.

The hauntingly wonderful musical theme Love Makes the World Go Round, runs through the story and captures the mood of the carnival people perfectly. The play is directed by Kent Paul.
