Musicarnival tent theater boosts summer entertainment
In Lambertville New Jersey eight summers ago a portable musical comedy sparked a boom. Twenty such tent shows now play to capacity crowds in the east and Midwest. Musicarnival, led by producer John L Price Jr of Cleveland, claims to be a major shift in show business. The Cleveland run seats 1900 and sold out 20 shows before Pajama Game opened. After Damn Yankees ends an estimated 200000 will have visited the theater in the round. Show folks praise canvas tents as a new summer career path replacing the straw hat circuit.
