Update on cd Delivery

Update #8 · Jan 4, 2012 · comment

Ooops!

I made a bit of a mistake in my assessment of cd delivery.  I was under the impression that we already had cd copies made when Suspended Cirque got the opportunity to listen to the tracks.  But in fact, they were being pressed and printed.  

We've been given a delivery date of late next week, so instead you should be getting your cds by the end of January.

Sorry for my error!  

Best wishes,

Michelle

Mailing of cd's

Update #7 · Dec 24, 2011 · comment

Happy Holidays!

Suspended Cirque wishes you a wonderful holiday season, and we would also like to announce that we have at long-last received the cd's of Subterranea's original songs.  Yea!  We got to listen to it for the first time last night as we were busily getting ready for the evening's performance of our current show, Under the Tree.  Being in the throws of a new show reminded us of how long its been since the performances of Subterranea, and how just how much we all grew as performers during the making of that show.  I know we've thanked you before for your support and enthusiasm, but it bears to be repeated that we honestly could not have done it without you.  Every member of Suspended Cirque is now a stronger and better performer thanks to the challenging roles we gave ourselves as actors, singers, aerialists and dancers in Subterranea. And even though it was difficult at times, our company will not be able to progress unless we keep challenging ourselves as performers.

Early next week, we will be making copies of the cd's and mailing them out to those of you who should be receiving this reward as part of your pledge to the Subterranea project. I know when you hear the final product, you will agree that it was worth the wait.  

Once again, have a wonderful holiday season, and we'll see you in the New Year!

Best wishes, 

Suspended Cirque

Subterranea Performances Coming Next Week!

Update #5 · Apr 18, 2011 · comment

Hello,

Only one week to go before Suspended Cirque moves into the Connelly Theater and begins transforming the venue into Subterranea: an Urban Fairytale. 

Things are really coming together, and the whole company is super excited to show you what we've been working so passionately on.

Tickets are now on sale through SmartTix.  And as predicted, the Friday and Saturday evening shows are starting to fill up, so be sure to buy tickets early if you want to attend one of those nights.

You can purchase tickets here: http://www.smarttix.com/show.aspx?EID=&showCode=SUB14

Also, be sure to contact us for discount codes if you need/want one.  We don't want anyone to miss this performance!

Thank you, and Tickets are Now on Sale

Hi Everyone,

Wow!  As we enter the final couple days of our Kickstarter campaign, we are now at 138% of our goal of 5,000.  Thank you so much to all of you who contributed so far.  Your contributions will really help offset the many costs of getting this production up and running:  our composer, Jeff Halpern, our director, Andrew Oswald, the theater rental, our lighting designer, Andrew J. White, marketing materials, costumes and much, much more.

Rehearsals for the show have been hard, but rewarding.  The show is really starting to take shape.  It’s going to be great, and we are all so excited!

The latest news is that tickets are now on sale through SmartTix.  We expect the Friday and Saturday evening shows to fill up quickly, so be sure to buy tickets early if you want to attend one of those nights.

You can purchase tickets here: http://www.smarttix.com/show.aspx?EID=&showCode=SUB14

Once again, thank you so much for your encouragement and enthusiasm for Subterranea: an Urban Fairytale.
