Our 6th Annual Halloween Show for Kids and Families
Sponsored by Kinney Drugs, Inc.
Stephen Gratto ... Audience participation,
Comedy, Juggling, Rope Walking and Variety show.
Stephen was here two years ago, the show received such rave reviews
that we knew a return engagement was in order! Don't miss this!
Juggler, unicyclist, stilt walker, rope walker, hatchet thrower (have no
fear!), balloon sculptor and balancer, Stephen Gratto is a physical comedian
and much much more. Experience fast-paced and exciting displays of classic
vaudeville and circus skills including many feats of daring, bravery, and
side-splitting foolishness.
The high point of each act is invariably the
audience participation. Almost every portion of the show will involve
audience volunteers, both young and old, this interaction keeps everyone
involved and laughing. Stephen is truly a jack of all trades and a master of
many.
Tickets are $4.00 each. Children 12 and under are admitted free.
Children should be accompanied by an adult.
Tickets will be at the door.
