New Schedule Announced For Slava's Snowshow

The internationally-acclaimed SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW, seen by audiences in over 80 cities around the world and recently honored with a 2005 Drama Desk Award, will shift its show schedule to play Monday nights at 8 PM beginning July 25.

The new performance schedule will be Mondays at 8 PM; No performance on Tuesdays; Wednesdays through Fridays at 8 PM; Saturdays at 4 PM and 8 PM; and Sundays at 2 PM and 5:30 PM at the Union Square Theatre (100 East 17th Street). (Running time is 90 minutes.)

In addition, a new block of tickets have been put on sale for the award-winning show thru January 2006. SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW will celebrate its one-year anniversary on September 8, 2005.

SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW is a magical theatrical experience that melds the unbridled hilarity -- and the unexpected poignancy -- of the art of clowning with stunning spectacle and awe-inspiring visual images and fantasy, culminating in a blinding, heart-stopping snowstorm that engulfs the entire audience.

New York critics have praised SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW. Entertainment Weekly raved, "This SNOW is hot, hot, hot! Walking into SNOWSHOW is like strapping yourself into the very best ride ever. More spectacular than anything Off-Broadway has seen in years." The New York Times said, "In a show that touches the heart and tickles the funny bone, Slava and his giggle of clowns are stirring up laughter and enjoyment. Highly recommended." Variety proclaimed, "SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW is enchanting and remarkable and awakens a child-like sense of wonder and glee." The Wall Street Journal wrote, "SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW is a zany fantasia, and I loved every minute of it." The Associated Press said, "After playing to audiences in more than 80 cities around the world, SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW is taking off-Broadway by storm, and if New York is lucky the show will stay for a good long time. In the blissful finale it was hard to find a single adult or child who seemed less than ecstatic" And Roma Torre on New York One raved, "If only this show that taps into our inner child could be seen by warring adults, the world would be a better place. Only a fool would underestimate the transformative powers of a show that brings audiences to such giddy heights."

SLAVA'S SNOWSHOW is performed by an ensemble of clowns at each performance at the Union Square Theatre (100 East 17th Street).
