PALACE OF VARIETY TO REOPEN ON 42nd STREET! YOUR HELP NEEDED!
******************************************************************************
The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus Palace of Variety and FREE Museum of Times Square is
scheduled to reopen its doors on 42nd Street on January 1, 2004.
Celebrating the 100th anniversary of Times Square, Bindlestiff are bringing NYC's only Variety House back
to the heart of the entertainment district. In order to do this, we need your support in the form of services and/or donations.
We are in need of funds and services for all aspects of our production and all donations are tax deductible.
If you were unable to visit the Palace of Variety during its last run, you must experience this urban treasure this time.
It is a 70 seat theater, equipped to handle aerial performances. The high traffic lobby of the theater is an intimate museum
devoted to the history of Times Square and the illegitimate theater of NYC.
It is an excellent place to promote a business with ample opportunity for sign placements on 42nd street,
ads in our weekly programs and in our quarterly cirkus publication, The Roustabout Reporter.
The Palace of Variety is able to provide a financially accessible venue for productions. We tend to support the variety arts,sideshow,
vaudeville, clowns, buffoons, burlesque, skit comedy, political satire,etc.--though have been know to bring in "straight" Theater.
If you would like more information about the details and surprisingly low cost of producing your own production at the Palace,
e-mail cirkus(a)bindlestiff.org.

glorious glamour, burlesque humor, ensemble hijinks and sheer heart stopping thrills to satisfy the most
discerning audience, High Heels and Red Noses features the worlds best in variety entertainment.

***************************************************************
HIGH HEELS & RED NOSES WEST COAST TOUR CANCELLED!
***************************************************************
Due to financial circumstances we have decided to cancel our upcoming fall tour.
This is unprecedented in our 8 year history as a touring entity. As you know, the economy is bad everywhere
and all industries are hard hit. Entertainment, especially in our end of the spectrum- the independent and
un-funded arts groups- is hardest hit of all.
We are currently evaluating our current tour habits and may revise the schedule to hit the West Coast in the
Spring and the East Coast in the Fall. For those of you that purchased tickets in advance for these, contact
the venue and your money will be refunded.
We are focusing our energy and resources into the revival of the Palace of Variety in Times Square and our
plans for presenting "High Heels and Red Noses" on tour in the spring and fall of 2004 are unaffected by this decision.
Hope to see you all down the road somewhere!"
