PARIS — On Saturday, July 1,  at 7:30 p.m., Celebration Barn Theater presents Mike Miclon’s The Early Evening Show, featuring the juggling brothers Collin and Shane Miclon, The Ale House String Band, and Early Evening Show regulars Fritz Grobe, Tom Murphy and the Early Evening Show Orchestra.

The Early Evening Show, a spoof of late-night talk shows, has been performed from Maine to Switzerland and built its reputation with a 14-year run at the Oddfellow Theater in Buckfield.

Shane and Collin Miclon have been juggling since they could pick up objects. The two brothers juggled for audiences throughout Maine growing up in the state, and now call the Big Apple their home.

The Ale House String Band will be on hand to debut their new album. The Band was formed in, and caused by, the artistic whirlpool that is Waldoboro. Oren is a classically trained vocalist, Brian is a wandering soul who picked up music along the way, and April has a masters degree in music performance. The three have an uncanny ability to improvise music on the spot.

The Early Evening Show’s wild improvisations, surprise guests and audience interactions have made it the longest-running live variety show in Maine. The Bangor Daily News called it, “a seamless, hilarious production,” and CBS Sunday Morning called it, “must-see reality.”

Tickets to Mike Miclon’s are available for $15 for adults, $13 for seniors (60+), and $10 for kids (17 and under). All tickets are general admission; members receive priority seating. Lobby and concessions open at 6:30 p.m. Purchasing tickets in advance is strongly recommended.

To purchase tickets or find more information, visit www.CelebrationBarn.com or call the Barn’s box office at 207-743-8452. Celebration Barn Theater is located just off Route 117 at 190 Stock Farm Road.
