FREE CIRCUS TICKETS FOR THE UNEMPLOYED

Free circus tickets for the unemployed
June 7th, 2010, 5:08 pm ·
The circus is coming to town…and if you’re unemployed, you and your family can get in free.
Circus Vargas will give tickets to the jobless for any weekday show for two Orange County stops in its 2010 tour.
The circus will be in Santa Ana at Westfield Main Place this Thursday through Monday, June 14. It will then move to the Westminster Mall from Thursday, June 17, through Monday, June 28.
To get tickets, arrive about an hour before show time to any weekday show (no weekends). You must bring a layoff notice or stub from an unemployment check to prove you are out of work. An unemployed worker’s family can also go in free with the proof.
Just a few months in to its current tour, Circus Vargas has given away 7,000 tickets. The owners, Katya and Nelson Quiroga, were suprrised at hoe deeply the recession has hit families, said Joan Hart, a spokeswoman.
“There are a lot of women out there who are single and unemployed,” she said. “They just can’t afford to take their kids to the circus. It’s kind of sad to think kids can’t go to the circus for that reason.”
Tickets range from $15 to $50 for children and $20 to $55 for adults
