Vaudeville at the Broadway Held At Broadway Theatre of Pitman 6/9-12

Philadelphia native and accomplished Director/Production creator, Dambra Sabato of A Saturday's Child, and The Broadway Theatre of Pitman, present "Vaudeville at the Broadway" on the built-for-Vaudeville stage of the local Broadway Theatre of Pitman, 43 S. Broadway, Pitman, NJ.

Built in 1926 by Philadelphia firm, Eberhard, Magaziner & Harris, the theatre was restored to its original splendor in 2006. Producers are awakening a creature, dormant for nearly a century--music stands; feature signs; backdrops; and the first lighting board, all rediscovered, restored and reused with original 1926 artifacts and pieces of the theatre's Vaudeville roots.

Accurate and period-precise in content, cast, costuming, makeup and music, "Vaudeville at the Broadway" is a true-to-life, live Vaudeville show, with eight all-star acts, nickel peanuts and popcorn, shoeshines and newsboys -- the likes of which has not been seen since 1930. The show invites audiences to step back in time 85 years, and experience what they would have seen on this stage in June 1926.

An extraordinary group of headliners and showcase musicians, from Philadelphia, New York, Atlantic City and Baltimore, have immersed themselves in the culture and fabric of 1926, resurrecting the passion and spirit of Vaudeville performers of the past.

"If there are ghosts in the eighty-five-year-old theater, they're smiling," believes Director Sabato. The acts are:

"The Give and Take Jugglers," the song stylings of "The Baybee Sisters,"Ray Croce as Cyrano De Bergerac, "The Chris Sooy 5" band; the comic banter of "Clancy & Muldoon","The Valentino Tango," the escape artistry of Doug Young, featuring Houdini's suspended straight jacket escape; the big, beautiful voice of Caroline Kearney.

Showtimes: June 9 and 10, 7:30P.M.; June 11, 7:00P.M.; 9:30P.M.; and June 12, 2:00P.M. and 6:00P.M.

Tickets are $19.26 - as curiously authentic as the Theatre's opening date. Call 856-384-8381 or online, www.thebroadwaytheatre.org . For more about Director/Creator, Dambra Sabato visit www.dambrasabato.com
