I remember seeing the circus movie with "Look For A Star" in it! (Circus of Terrors?) Anyway, a few years later I'm watching the [real] circus, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, and for their flying act they actually played "Look For A Star!" I was surprised thinking if there were any people more superstitious than theatre folk it would be circus folk. (Or maybe the performers never saw the movie and didn't know the source of the music!)
