This August THE DEUCE turns up the dog-days-of-Summer heat when we take you to the The Harris Theatre for the high-tension thrill-ride – the acme of NYC actioners: NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER! Co-Presented by DEUCE-buddy and Times Square-centric archivist – Chris Poggiali from TEMPLE OF SCHLOCK!
Plus: Prizes and surprises, Bronx Brewery Pale Ale at the after-party, and music by DJ BONES! Hosted and presented by THE DEUCE JOCKEYS: Jeff, Andy, and Joe!
Ex-cop James Brolin goes ballistic and blows his top when a bonkers bozo from the bombed-out Bronx boondocks brazenly (and mistakenly) kidnaps his daughter… on her birthday! His blood a-boil – he’ll bust up every borough to get her back… Floozies and Fro-Yo… ex wives and ex cons… furious cab drivers and demented detectives… joggers and… jugglers?? He’ll tear it all apart! Just look at that poster – he’s tearing it apart!!!
Aka ‘New York Killer’ aka ‘Countdown In Manhattan’ aka ‘New York Connection’ aka ‘Pursued’ – NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER by any name is a bounty of bombastic fun – and a telling take on the politics of the City in its strapped-for-cash troubled times…
Part of Nitehawk’s THE DEUCE Signature Series.
