  The Maestrosities: Caught in the Zipper July 7
Posted June 27, 2008


Note: The first two shows in this series were both terrific--and so well attended that the group is moving into the much-nicer main theater (from the basement space). This is the last show before spoons player Glen "Aldo" Heroy leaves to join the Big Apple Circus main show. Highly recommended. Posted as received.

This one will be an exceptional show . . .
Expect the unexpected . . .

-Caught in the Zipper!

CircusNYC - The Maestrosities

What
The Maestrosities are a fictional band who perform a real variety show loaded with character-driven comedy, hilarious dysfunction, excellent music, and top-notch variety acts. Imagine Spinal Tap meets The Muppets. The band is portrayed by six of New York City's top clown-comedians who collaborate as a well-oiled comic team to bring you the most exciting and genre-bending evening you can find in NYC. Period. Previously selected as The Village Voice's "Voice Choice."

We've got new songs, new guests, and a new stage at the Zipper!
And we've got surprises up our sleeves!

Who
This time around, our special guest is the incredible Amy G, revolutionary cabaret comedienne described by Clive Barnes as "a comic actress of great gifts" Also on the bill is Torkova, a mind-boggling mentalist who promises to unlock your thoughts! Finally, there just might be a very exciting surprise mystery guest!
Perhaps Torkova will be able to predict who it is . . .

When
Monday, July 7, 8:00pm
Note: We're taking August off, just like TV!
Catch us while you can!

Where

The big news is that we've outgrown the downstairs space, so we'll be upstairs in the former Zipper Factory Tavern. It's bunches nicer. There's air conditioning, a bar, and no stairs, so you can bring Grandma! After being a band for over a year, we're finally up to the ground floor!
