Krewe of Town Revelers
“Tales from the CIMMER Zone” will be the theme for this year’s Krewe of Town Revelers’ Carnival Ball. The annual ball is a production that takes attendees on an imaginative journey as the court performs for the crowd. The 2019 celebration will feature chills and thrills as the audience views adventures from the “Zone.” Also featured in this year’s celebration will be the Town Club’s “Legacy Couple,” Renee Chastant and Larry Spaetgens. This couple was chosen from a pool of past maids and dukes on CIMMER’s court who didn’t have an opportunity to “show their talent” and perform for the audience, as has become tradition since 2002. The 2019 ball is set for Saturday, March 2, at 7 p.m. at the International Rice Festival Building in Crowley. The public is invited to attend and join in the festivities.
Tickets are on sale now and can be obtained at www.ktrcarnivalball.ticketleap.com/64th and at the Crowley Town Club.
