He might not be the king of Brooklyn, but Borough President Markowitz is the borough’s one court jester.
With great fanfare last Thursday morning, the irrepressible showman joined harlequins and a pachyderm from Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus to announce that tickets are now for sale for the summertime run of the so-called “Greatest Show on Earth” in Coney Island.
The first show of the “Boom-A-Ring” spectacle under a big tent on West 21st Street and Surf Avenue will be on June 18.
Operators are standing by. While you’re on hold, read this week’s interview with Markowitz, above.
Coney Island Boom A Ring [West 21 Street between the Boardwalk and Surf Avenue, (201) 507-8900], June 18 to Sept. 7. Tickets start at $10. For info, visit the Ringling Bros. Web site.
