The Electric Circus nightclub was a drug-fueled, multicultural oasis of dance and creativity in 1960โs NYC, frequented by icons like Jimi Hendrix, Timothy Leary, and Sly & the Family Stone. Against a hallucinogenic backdrop of hippies, Hellโs Angels, and circus performers, club founders Stan Freeman and Jerry Brandt share memories of the clubโs rise and spectacular demise. Dynamic editing, a groovy soundtrack, and psychedelic vibes make this an entertaining trip through a slice of NYC history. โ Karen McMullen
