There used to be a flea circus in Times Square until the 1950s. I saw it once when I was a child. It was truly a strange place, quite shadowy except for the lighted boxes where the fleas were. There was also a display of these tiny carriages and flea accessories. IIRC, it shared space with some kind of private museum of torture devices or some such thing, or maybe it was just near that museum. Times Square was pretty strange in the 1950s.

I think the place was probably gone by the end of that decade; I don’t recall ever having gone there again.

A flea and a fly in a flue
Were trapped! Oh, what could they DO??
Said the flea, "Let us fly!"
Said the fly, "Let us flee!"
So they flew through a flaw in the flue.

The flea in "A Bug's Life" did excellent work. I especially liked his death-defying "Flaming Death" routine.
