Cleveland Public Theatre (CPT) will present Pinch and Squeal's WIZBANG!, originated by Jason and Danielle Tilk, featuring multiple acts performed by variety performers, onstage January 31 and February 1, 2020, in CPT's James Levin Theatre.
CPT welcomes Pinch and Squeal's WIZBANG!-Cleveland's very own variety circus theatre-to CPT's James Levin Theatre stage for two spectacular nights of absolute madness filled with ridiculous acts, local circus performers, and professional misbehavers. WIZBANG! (Cleveland's only circus theatre) was created in 2013 along with their 60-seat show tent-and they have been putting on hit shows in Detroit and Cleveland ever since. Winners of the 2019 "Audience Choice" award from the BorderLight International Theatre + Fringe Festival, WIZBANG! strives to bring audiences the beautiful, the obscure, and zany. Shoving vaudeville kicking and screaming into the 21st century, Pinch and Squeal invite you into their absurd world where the nonstop entertainment unfolds all around, in your lap, and even above you!
Pinch and Squeal are made of clichéd sentimentality, kamikaze alcoholism, and old-wheeze jokes! These two knock out songs you wish you didn't love, tell jokes you wish you couldn't laugh at, and perform even worse magic. A modern twist on comedy duos throughout history, they've shoved vaudeville kicking and screaming into the 21st century. They've performed with Puddle's Pity Party, Piff the Magic Dragon, Lady Gaga's band leader Brian Newman, Bindlestiff Family Circus, Rochester Fringe, NYC's Murray Hill, and even for Transylvanian Saxons. www.pinchandsqueal.com.
