On February 10, The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus returns to Helsinki Hudson for the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus Winter Cabaret, a Hudson Valley extension of their 16 year New York City Winter Cabaret tradition. Audiences can expect the second Fridays of February and March to bring a new lineup of Cirkus and variety arts stars, with acts like aerial rope, contortion, ventriloquism, sword swallowing, juggling, physical comedy, burlesque and boylesque, and oddball novelty turns. Live music is a defining feature of all Bindlestiff's Winter Cabaret shows, with witty, original tunes by a variety of NYC's best composers and accompanists. Bindlestiff's unique style reflects deep roots in NYC's underground club scene, nods to political street theater, and a steady respect for the traditions of American popular entertainment and illegitimate theater. Bindlestiff's Winter Cabaret is for grown-ups only. For more information or to purchase tickets, please call (518) 828-4800 or visit www.helsinkihudson.com.
