Super Happy Happenins and a show at the Wealthy Theatre!!!
Hi friends,
Just checking in to say hey and mention our burlesque show will be
doing a special edition Saturday June 16th at the Wealthy Theatre for
the cost of 9 dollars. The theme is "Fractured Fairy Tales," we've
got Aesop, Snow White, Little Boy Blue, Miss Muffett, Homer's
Oddessey, a lovely Sugar Plum Fairy dance, great games like climb the
beanstalk, and all the rest from the talented cast, crew, and band
behind the best Burlesque show in Grand Rapids!!
This show is going to be a one of a kind spectacular, folks! I can't
even hint at what's going to be pulled out of my happy pants for this
very special edition; guest performers, short films, full orchestra,
more more more better better better!!
And if mid June seems too far away for our particular brand of arts
and entertainment, just read on...
First up this Saturday night is the acting debut of our esteemed
producer, Rich Haralson, in our 21st production of 24hr theatre!! Just
imagine, writers getting together friday night and creating 5 plays in
the span of 12 hours, the directors and actors join in at 9am and
rehearse till 9pm and perform these works of stamina and genius for
all of you!! This is going to be a fun event that yours truly, Rita,
Velveeta, Rotundo, and many more from the burlesque show and lots of
other special guests and new friends will be performing in. 5 short
plays starting at 9pm at our apartment on 106 S. Division #211 and
then we show a different play in 4 different studios on our block. For

And that's not all, folks! Everyone knows that SHFTB plays host to the
kick ass band, The End of Times Orchestra, well why don't you come see
the full 9 piece band in concert June 2nd!!
From Grand Rapids' Music Revue:
Grand Rapids musicians have never lacked in uniqueness, but every once
in a great while the best minds come together to not only break the
mold, but shatter it. This is the case with The End of Times
Orchestra. Their debut album, a two disc set, is a revelation of
vocals, masterful violin solos, and intricately molded percussions,
this well crafted conglomeration of colorful insanity and intrinsic
grooves is sure to capture the imagination like no other local band
can. A cross between drunken pirate serenades with the intense vibes
only a ringmaster on mescaline can deliver, this hybrid of
genre-bending circus-rock is a shoe in for those who appreciate music
outside the bun. If Tevye of Fiddler on the Roof had a favorite band,
this would be it; on the other hand... it would still be it.

Come out and see the full 9 piece orchestra along with our special
guests, A Paschal Circus, as we play Rocky's bar and Grill on Ionia;
Saturday June 2nd at 9pm for the mere cost of 3 dollars. Come out and
show 'em that a freak band can still rock the house!
P.S. Mr Happypants' all original jazz trio, The Old and New Avant
Garde, will be performing live on WGVU 88.5fm this Sunday from 2-3pm
on Harvey McKnight's jazz spotlight- tune in for a listen!!
Love,
Super Happy Funtime Burlesque
