The Sharp Things Holiday Spectacular | A Benefit
A letter from the Sharp Things...
----
Ho ho HO!
The date is fast approaching for THE SHARP THINGS HOLIDAY SPECTACULAR, Saturday, December 10 at the BROOKLYN LYCEUM. We really, REALLY want and NEED you to attend this big, BIG show, but we understand you may have questions. So...
Q: Brooklyn? I can't go to Brooklyn!
A: Sure you can. It's easy! The Brooklyn Lyceum is just steps away from the Union Street stop on the R train. Hop on and let the MTA do the rest!
Q: Subway? I can't take the subway!
A: So drive already. The Brooklyn Lyceum is easy to get to by car, just two miles from the Tillary Street exit on the BQE. Here's a map:

Q: Is the show really starting at 6:45? Why so early?
A: THE SHARP THINGS HOLIDAY SPECTACULAR is a family show, for children of all ages. We don't want anyone up past their bedtime -- unless they want to be.
Q: Twenty bucks? That's a fortune. Why so much?
A: THE SHARP THINGS HOLIDAY SPECTACULAR is a benefit for CF CARE, an organization that helps people with Cystic Fibrosis. One hundred percent of the proceeds will be donated. We want to raise as much as we can without bankrupting our fans.
Q: Gee, I dunno...
A: Come on! The cheap seats at Radio City are $50 -- and we'll have LIVE musicians, thank you. This is not just some lame, 40-minute set. We're talking over TWO HOURS of quality holiday entertainment. And the drinks are cheap. Such a deal!
Q: Are you just playing Christmas songs? I hate Christmas songs!
A: No sweat, Ebenezer. The second half of the show is a full set of Sharp Things originals.
Q: What's with the puppets?
A: We wish we could tell you, but we don't know ourselves. Come and find out with us!
Q: OK, enough already, you sold me! What now?
A: Go here and reserve your tickets:

See you on the 10th!
