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.

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!" -Keith & Stephanie- This is not spam. to be removed from this mail list, reply with the word "remove" in the subject line.
