PUTNEY VAUDEVILLE is the creation of Rebecca Waxman, Bronwyn Sims, Patrick Donnelly and Peter Siegel who hope to launch an ongoing showcase for old time entertainment and community talent. The night will include a stellar professional act, a rousing live band, assorted friends and neighbors displaying skills you may never have seen, beer and wine service and good-natured audience engagement.
THE REAL McCOY will headline the night starring Brent McCoy, a wildly entertaining comic performer who combines breathtaking circus stunts with lightning fast wit for a rollicking comic experience.
The house band will be the versatile GASLIGHT TINKERS, a beloved local band as well-versed in afro-pop, funk and reggae as they are in Celtic fiddle tunes and Tin Pan Alley chestnuts.
Beer and wine will be available through JD McCliment’s Pub.
