3. Advanced Sideshow School
From the Coney Island crew.
As part of the Sideshow School, we are presenting an Advanced Studies
Weekend in Coney Island. This weekend will be for those performers that have
developed a number of the skills that we teach in the full Sideshow School
course and want to learn some additional acts. It's Nov. 30/Dec. 1. We are
going to teach sword swallowing, human pincushion, knife throwing taught by
world champion David Adamovich, whip cracking and rope spinning taught by
Chris McDaniel and a number of other skills. These two days will be what you
are looking for. The fee is only $250. Call Dick Zigun at 718-372-5159 to
reserve your spot. For more information about Sideshow School, go to
www.coneyisland.com.
