It may not exactly live up to the full meaning behind the poetry of its name, but Dead Man�euro;�s Carnival is a fun mixture of different performance styles. Every year there�euro;�s a little something different. Some of it�euro;�s very tight and brilliantly executed. Some of it lurks around the paler shadows of the forgettable. If nothing else, there�euro;�s a poetry to the name. It makes me feel good just to live in a city where there�euro;�s a Dead Man�euro;�s Carnival every summer.
This summer, the Carnival takes the stage of the Miramar Theater on July 16th. This year�euro;�s show is described like this:
�euro;� Milwaukee's own Cabaret, Vaudeville, Variety, Circus Sideshow. This show will be full of Juggling, Magic, Acrobatics, Fire dancing and many more surprises. �euro;�
The show is backed-up by house band Sir Pinkerton and The Magnificents--a classy little retro group�euro;”a jazz group that does original stuff in the style of ragtime/boogie woogie.
The show starts at 9pm on July 16th. Admission is $10.
