Note: Recommended! Posted as received.
Coney Island USA presents
a Bindlestiff Family Variety Arts, Inc. and Playful Productions production
Bindlestiff Cavalcade of Youth
The Performers of Tomorrow Steal the Stage Today!
A special showcase for young variety performers, ranging from amateurs to world-class professionals. Juvenile jugglers, diminutive dancers, adolescent acrobats and a host of other moppets and mummers present a full show of vernal vaudeville. Acts range from debuting amateurs to world-class champion performers—all under the age of 21.
Now in its seventh year, Bindlestiff's Cavalcade continues to feature an amazing array of young
talent. These are the future stars of Cirque du Soleil, Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey
Circus, Coney Island Sideshow, and television. Where else can you see juvenile unicyclists, tap
dancers, magicians, clowns, and contortionists sharing the stage with Broadway-bound singers and
classically trained musicians? All the performers are under 21, but audience members of all ages
love this show.
Since its inception in January 2004, Bindlestiff's Cavalcade of Youth program has grown
markedly. In September 2006, COY participants were featured performers in the Speigeltent at the
South Street Seaport. In the past two years COY has led circus skills education programs at Abrons
Arts Center, Snug Harbor Cultural Center, and after-school programs throughout the Empire State.
In summer 2009, COY participated in the American Youth Circus Organization festival in Illinois.
