Fräulein Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities is the performing troupe of atypical individuals (commonly called "freaks") in a traveling carnival owned by Elsa Mars. The story "Freak Show" depicts the encampment of this troupe in Jupiter, Florida during 1952.
The carnival is open during the day, but the troupe performances are only during the night and, later in the season, matinees. It is unknown if the carnival workers for the rides are the same as the troupe.
The "Freaks"
The freaks are people with different capacities working in Elsa's freak show. She protects them as if they're her family. They seem to be close to each other, working together. She refers to them as "her monsters" and seems to keep herself aloof from them, despite her performances with the troupe and her own hidden deformity.
Some of the performers are listed here.
Ma Petite
Ma Petite is a very small Indian woman who serves as Elsa's (metaphorical) right hand.
She's seen first tending clothes with Elsa. She's present when the twins come into the freakshow. She came into Elsa and tell her that all the tickets have been bought. Later she's in the show inside a birds jail, eventually she plays a very small violin in Elsa's song show. [1]
She's making the nails to Elsa during Bette's vocal training, also she seems to be impress by Dot's natural gift. She plays her very small violin during "Criminal" singing by Dot and back-ups from Bette.[2]

Pepper is a "pinhead" (suffering from microcephaly), who appears often with a companion, Salty. Her story is also explored in more detail in a previous (but chronologically later) story "Asylum".
Salty
Amazon Eve
Paul
Also known as "The Illustrated Seal".

Meep
Meep is a tiny geek with a singular vocabulary (Meep!) and a singular talent; he bites the heads off of small animals.
He's with the others members of the show having breakfasta when Bette y Dot come to them, he bites a chicken head happily, but disgust Dot.
When Jimmy attempts to frame Dell Toledo for the murder of the police detective by planting the officer's badge in his trailer, the strongman turns the tables and it is instead found by police among Meep's possessions. Upon his arrest he is placed in a holding cell with several low men who believe him to be responsible for a string of murders and they beat the tiny freak to death.
