Monday night at The Slipper Room was something special. The 80 Proof Variety Celebration brought together a remarkable cast — Elizabeth Munn, Ellie Steingraeber, Sir Richard Castle, The Great Dubini, Jellyboy the Clown, Richard Saudek, Zeroboy, and Juanita Cardenas — with Wilfredo and Mel Frye holding it all together as co-hosts. Every single one of them delivered. Laughter, spectacle, and pure variety magic from start to finish. This is exactly why we do this. Thank you to everyone who came out and made the night unforgettable. 🥃
We publish the strange, the smart, and the spectacular—sideshow geeks, Coney Island legends, and circus misfits all under one tent.

🎪 Announcing 'Natural Born!' - Where Circus Magic Meets Human Truth
In an age of digital distance, the circus and sideshow remain one of our most visceral connections to raw human experience. Aaron Smith's groundbreaking new book, featuring a soul-stirring foreword by Omnium Circus founder Lisa B. Lewis, doesn't just document circus arts - it celebrates their evolving relevance in 2025.
'Natural Born!' takes you backstage, under the big top, and into the hearts of performers who dare to dream in sawdust and spotlight. This isn't just another historical account - it's a living, breathing testament to the power of human expression and the enduring magic of circus arts.
