To help raise funds to get us to San Diego, a live performance of “William (the snowman)” will be held at downtown Tucson’s Club Congress. The best part (unless it backfires) is that YOU get to decide how much you’d like to pay to attend.
-----
Catfish Baruni and his Slideshow Fairytales will be performing in the 2015 San Diego International Fringe Festival (July 23rd – August 2nd). To help raise funds to make it to San Diego, an IndieGoGo campaign was created.
And now a live preview performance of "William (the snowman)" is being offered to continue to raise funds. And YOU get to decide how much to pay to see the show at club congress. Enjoy the show? Throw in some shekels. *REALLY* enjoy the show? Throw in even more shekels. (Please do not donate in actual shekels, though)
Part Spalding Gray, part business presentation gone awry, and part PG-13 rated fairytale, "Slideshow Fairytales: William (the snowman)" follows the snowy sojourns of the titular character as he learns lessons about life, love, and friendship in a faraway time when magic was science and science was magic (which was science [which was magic]),

Have you ever had a dream, the kind from which you don't wake up screaming? It was pretty great, wasn't it? Don't you wish you could go back to that magical dream world and stay there forever? Well, tough luck, pal, you can't incept yourself!...
BUT you can help Catfish's dream come true, and what could be more rewarding than that?
Catfish Baruni is a playwright, solo performer, and vinyl record clock maker. His signature brand of storytelling and his subversive commentary on human nature will be sure to delight and provoke audiences of all types.

Keep Calm and Beef
The Facts in the Case of the Great Beef Contract
by Mark Twain
Adapted and read by Catfish Baruni
In as few words as possible I wish to lay before the nation what share, howsoever small, I have had in this matter, this matter which has so exercised the public mind, engendered so much ill-feeling, and so filled the newspapers of both continents with distorted statements and extravagant comments—on or about the 10th of October, 1861, John Wilson Mackenzie, of Rotterdam, Chemung County, New Jersey, contracted with the General Government to furnish to General Sherman the sum total of thirty barrels of beef.
The bill has yet to be paid.Join Catfish Baruni as he uses nothing but his wit (and select obscenities) and a bootlegged copy of PowerPoint to share with the world his version of Mark Twain’s classic comedic short story, The Facts in the Case of the Great Beef Contract.
