On October 20, performers of all kinds will take the stage at the majestic Hardwick Town House. In a Vermont-style tribute to popular game shows, "Who Wants To Be a Vaudevillianaire?" will be a light-hearted evening of comedy, magic, music and mayhem. Hosted by Vermont Vaudeville's core ensemble, the event will feature talented and funny local performers, the VV house band, and NEK "Celebrity" Judges. The grand-prize winner, or "Vaudevillianaire", will be invited to perform in Vermont Vaudeville's 10-year anniversary production the following weekend, October 25-27.

Vermont Vaudeville has a legacy of "laugh till your face hurts" productions, and Vaudevillianaire will be no exception. Recently awarded a Seven Daysies for "Vermont's Best Comedy Troupe", their semi-annual productions have become must-see events in the region.

Anyone and everyone with a diamond-in-the-rough talent, a wacky idea, or a little piece of theater, is encouraged to apply. Applications are open to the public until October 6 at www.VermontVaudeville.com. "Who Wants To Be a Vaudevillianaire" starts at 7:30 sharp on Saturday, October 20. Admission will be by suggested donation of $10 at the door. More information at www.vermontvaudeville.com
