Program Description

Event Details

From the 1880's-1920's, Vaudeville was the most popular form of entertainment in the United States. A vaudeville show was made up of acts such as comedy, singing, dancing, juggling, acrobatics, illusion, ventriloquism, and puppetry. Many famous film starts got their start in vaudeville including Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, Will Rogers, and Bob Hope.

To immerse you into the spirit of a vaudeville show, we will be making a collage of vaudeville performers that you can fill with your favorite acts.
