A Message from the Executive Director of Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua:
Our Response to the Global Health Emergency
|
Dear Big Top Family,
Usually this time of year we are so happy to announce our exciting line up of summer shows, and are busy getting the tent ready to welcome you back in June. However, this year, in light of the global pandemic, we instead have to bring you the sad news that our 2020 summer season will not be able to go on as planned. After weighing countless scenarios, we have determined that the most responsible and viable path forward is to cancel all of our summer performances. With the uncertainty surrounding the safety of large gatherings, it was unfortunately the only decision we could make. The Long Intermission: I assure you, that with your help, Big Top will continue to bring you exciting program options during our long intermission. We will still be here producing Tent Show Radio, live-streaming our new Tiny Tent Show, creating new musical content for our original shows, and planning quality programs for the future. We appreciate all of your love and support during this time. |

If you hold tickets to any of our shows, you have several options:
We are beyond grateful to all of our loyal patrons. We encourage you to consider donating your tickets back to Big Top or holding your money on account, which will greatly help Big Top during this time. Please do not hesitate to request a refund if desired.
At this time our office is currently closed to the public – we invite you to connect via phone and online. Until we can meet again, we are committed to you and everyone in our community. Please watch your inbox, our website and our social channels for updates, information and creative ways to keep music centered in your hearts and homes. We are thinking of you, all of our Big Top family and the world's people at this difficult time. Please reach out with questions or comments, or just send us a note to keep in touch. As our stage may sit empty through the summer, we recognize even more now the value and power of experiencing music together. We will get through this together.
