47th Annual Madfest (Madison) Jan 15-19
Posted December 29, 2008
Note: It's another 47th annual juggling festival, from the NYC
jugglers' sister club. This one is always great, especially the public
show, and this year's show features the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus, so
there's an extra NYC connection. Worth the trip if you can make it.
Bring your long underwear though; Madison weather in January is no
joke. Posted as received.
