THE DIMES LORE
Dimes is the story of a carnival beyond it's expiration. A tragic story of a Clown (Tillie) and a Psychic (Obscura) who survived a tragic infestation of worms that ate through the cast, the sets, the costumes and the rides! Tillie and Obscura lead the audience through a tale of desperation and perseverance with what is left of their carnival. They sell "wonder worms" at the show to recoup their loss..Graphic Design by Marcello Bevilacqua
