A Clarification

Posted by on Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 2:22 PM

A letter regarding Brendan Kiley's piece this week on Circus Contraption:

Dear Stranger,

I read the wonderful article by Brendan Kiley, waving a fond farewell to the great Circus Contraption. All of us at The Moisture Festival feel the same sadness when we think of Seattle with out that troupe. There was one reference in the article that I feel compelled to correct. “Seattle vaudeville group called the Royal Famille du Caniveaux, which now runs Seattle's Moisture Festival..."

While there are several members of Du Caniveaux who are proud to contribute to the workings of the festival—Cathy Sutherland, Randy Minkler, John Olufs, Rhonda Sable, Hacki and Moeppi Ginda—they would never take credit for running the festival.

The credit for that monumental task should go to the real organizers: Tim Furst, Maque DaVis, Sandy Palmer, Katherine Bragdon, Megan Riggs, Rhonda Sable.

We will all deeply miss the inspiration that Circus Contraption never failed to deliver.

Ron W. Bailey - Du Caniveaux
Organizer - Moisture Festival
