Playing @
Connelly Theater
220 East 4th Street, New York City, NY 10009
The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus has been presenting classic American circus tradition with its own uniquely contemporary spin for over 20 years.  Its hybrid of vaudeville, circus, comedy, burlesque, live original music, and sideshow has enthralled audiences across the United States and around the world.

“Brooklyn Abridged”
is a highly stylized visual and aural journey through the beautiful borough of Brooklyn, where citizens, civil servants, and tourists alike showcase their individual artistry in the setting of some of the borough’s most iconic landmarks.

An all-new production, written, directed, and designed by David Gallo, each act of “Brooklyn Abridged”  takes us on a personal adventure with a unique visual approach, as individual residents of the Borough of Kings magically seize opportunities to portray their personal stories.

Accessibility

  • Wheelchair Info

    Although the building is unfortunately not ADA-compliant (it was built in the mid-1800s), the theater is on ground level and we have a secondary entrance that is wheelchair accessible (no steps). Look for the easternmost door of the building, with the small sign that says “Theater” over it. This door is usually locked, so you will need to request access from the front of house staff.
  • Elevator/Escalator

    None available
  • Parking

    Edison ParkFast at 167 Essex St. btw Stanton and Houston (about a 6 minute walk)
  • Entrance

    The building is unfortunately not ADA-compliant (it was built in 1874) Building entrance is located on the ground floor. The theater is on the same level as the building entrance.
  • Box Office

    The Connelly Theater does not have a full-time box office on site. You can purchase tickets to all shows online 24 hours a day until shortly before each performance. Walk-up tickets may be purchased, pending availability, at showtime.

    Restrooms are accessible without stairs, however there are no wide stalls. If you use a mobility device that requires a wider stall, we have made arrangements with The Cabin NYC, a bar across the street (205 E. 4th St.), for our patrons with accessibility needs to use their bathroom. There are no steps to navigate from the sidewalk to the bathroom at the Cabin.
