 TRAINED FLEAS GO PURE POP AT PINK PONY
_____________________________________________________________

Midge and Madge, Trained fleas and stars of the Acme Miniature
Circus, will perform 16 shows in 6 days  (August 24-29) as part
of the first Annual Pure Pop Theatre Festival in New York City.
The shows will take place in the well-known theatre-bar the Pink
Pony. (178 Ludlow Street at Houston Street)

Providence resident Adam G. Gertsacov, ringmaster, psycho-entomologist,
and proprietor of the show, will be on hand to lead the fleas through their
stunts, which will include a chariot race, a tightwire dance, and
a death defying finale.  He will also recite some well known flea
poetry (also known as flea verse) and give audience members a
brief yet informative history of fleas.

The Pure Pop Festival is a curated festival on the Lower East
Side of  Manhattan that will bring over 60 shows from all over
the world to venues on the Lower East Side.  The Festival is
produced by Todo con Nada, a theatre company that is known as the
"Lincoln Center of Off-Off Broadway  Theatre"

The Acme Miniature Circus is a Victorian style flea circus that
has delighted audiences from Boston to Brazil.  The show features
"Trained Fleas Performing Spectacular Circus Stunts As Seen Before
(and on Top of) the Crowned Heads of Europe."
