Description
MIDWEST
The sideshow front heralding the charms of Tina is an eyeful of dazzling, flamboyant artwork similar to that represented in the circus program along with glowing introductions of the performers. The front has a small entrance.
MID
The sideshow fronts are an eyeful of dazzling, flamboyant artwork similar to that represented in the circus program along with glowing introductions of the performers. Each front has a small entrance.
MIDEAST
The sideshow front is an eyeful of dazzling, flamboyant artwork similar to that represented in the circus program along with glowing introductions of the performers. The front has a small entrance.
NOOK
The sideshow front is warped and faded beyond recognition.
So the front at MIDWEST is "heralding the charms of Tina", even though the entrance to her place is at MIDEAST.
Actually, the description of MIDWEST doesn't even mention any sideshow fronts, so if they are described at all in this room it should probably be a general description, like "The sideshow fronts are an eyeful of dazzling, flamboyant artwork similar to that represented in the circus program along with glowing introductions of the performers." I.e. it should say "fronts" not "front" (like in MID) and not mention any entrance at all.
