From 1880 to 1930, Vaudeville was the most popular form of entertainment in America. Audiences marveled at singers and dancers, jugglers and comics, aerialists, ventriloquists, illusionists, acrobats, animal acts and scenes from New York stage-plays. Young performers learned their trade by working the circuits, doing as many as six shows a day. A few became legends. It was a time and a life like no other.

This is a show audiences would have seen the year this theater opened. True to content and order, period-precise in lighting, makeup, costuming and music, it is authentic in every possible way. Achieving this recreation is an artistic and technical challenge.

This show is like nothing you have seen on this stage before. That is of course, unless you were here eighty-five years ago. More than a show, Vaudeville at the Broadway is an invitation to step back in time and experience the look, feel, sound and celebration that was Vaudeville.

Tickets are $19.26 and are available by clicking here.
