8. January 2009 by Candace Carlisle.

“BEST FREAKSHOW IN AUSTIN” AUSTIN CHRONICLE’S BEST OF AUSTIN 2008

ONLY $10..$15 AT DOOR
Austin, TX January 09th 2009. If things are seeming a little Freaky this year maybe it’s because the 999 EYES Authentic Vaudevillian FREAKSHOW, the last Freakshow in the world, is playing RUTAMAYA Friday January 09, 2009 11 adv and 15 dos. Don’t miss this show.

As the last authentic human oddities Freakshow (verified on National Geographic’s Taboo and WE TV’s Secret lives of Women), the troupe offers a vaudevillian show so unique, you won’t believe your eyes. The troupe recreates the world, one Freakshow at a time, with their highly talented cast of Vaudevillian Performers.

Performers include REAL living Freaks (such as a Jackie the Human Tripod, the Black Scorpion, T-REX and more), Fabulous clowns, Amazing Sword Swallowers, and of course, Austin’s own live six piece gipsy circus band, THAT Damned Band.

If you haven’t already, you will fall in love with the music. The Band sounds like a circus train wreck’t into a hobo camp where wandering Jews and travelers from eastern Europe have been learning Irish drinking songs from Tom Waits. The show is complete with an attractive backdrop of original hand-painted sideshow banners and an authentic traveling dime museum that magically transforms the venue into a carnival midway.

The 999 EYES FREAKSHOW is great show for open-minded audiences of all persuasions, religions, creeds, races, income brackets, demographics, and AGES!

This vaudevillian-style carnival extravaganza displays the notion that genetic diversity is something to be celebrated and not ignored! Interviews with the Freak Performers and Project Founder can be read at www.999eyes.com
