Sideshow Saturday Nights
at the SoHo Playhouse
Todd
Robbins, dean at the Coney
Island Sideshow Academy, gives the Great Nippulini a warm
welcome.
:..:
The Great Nippulini
starts off with a demostration of bowling proportions.
:..:
This was the swingingest
anvil this side of the Village.
This guy got a close-up
personal view of the Great Nippulini tapering in his shackles.
He didn't seem to mind the
free nipple ride afterwards.
:..:
This is a recent stunt the
Great
Nippulini invented. It involves crushing a 10 pound strength
plastic cup between his chest and a barbell that runs through both nipples.
The cup is crushed by the sheer force of his chest pulling his nipples
inwards. It's very tricky to understand, but it works.
The Great Nippulini
shares an awkward yet intimate moment with an audience participant.
:..:
This cylinder head has seen
more miles on the Great Nippulini than it did on an engine block!
Sideshow in New York...
this can't get any better
Sideshow Saturday Nights, is put
on in association with the Coney
Island Sideshow School and held at the SoHo Playhouse in New York.
The event is weekly and showcases a “Freak of the Week” each time.
This night featured the Great Nippulini in all his glory. Needless to say,
New Yorkers got a taste of something they had no idea Philly could put
out.
This is what Todd Robbins had to say about The Great
Nippulini:
"I would just like to say
that for the record that the Great Nippulini is a great guy. He worked
Sideshow Saturday Night last night and killed. He has an impressive act
with feats of strength and endurance that must be seen to be believed.
And he is a real pro. He got lost on his way to the theater (an easy thing
to do in Manhattan), so he had to just roll in and start working. Lesser
performers would not be able to handle this kind of situation, but the
mighty nippled one just took it all in stride, went right on and slayed
the audience with his amazing act."
