The Not-A-Christmas-Show
Tired of Rudolph and his nose, Tiny Tim, The Nutcracker and the seemingly endless broadcasts of “It’s a Wonderful Life” and “Miracle on 34th Street”?
Feeling a bit Bah-Humbug are we?
Perhaps the Weirdo Show’s Not-A-Christmas-Show, at the Palace of Wonders might help reduce that holiday overload feeling.
Who the hell knows what performers you might get to see at the Palace of Wonders - sword-swallowers, magicians, circus acts, fire-dancers, gartered Burlesque dancers, racy vaudeville performers or just a few odd-balls doing weird things that’ll make you shiver.
The Not-A-Christmas Show will definitely distract you from the pressures of holiday shopping, gift wrapping and the thought of spending endless days decking the halls with your in-laws.
The Palace of Wonders also has a museum featuring over 500 carnival and sideshow exhibits and pieces of memorabilia. For a peak inside the museum, click here.
