Description

During the show, attendees will be transported back to the World War II era when well-known entertainers cheered up American troops through comedy skits, beloved music and patriotism.

The show features live musicians and actors reading Old Time Radio-style scripts incorporating Edmond history from 1943. Big band music will be performed by Talk of the Town Orchestra. Lindsie VanWinkle-Guthrie, Scott Guthrie, Christine Lanning, and Barrett Huddleston will entertain in the style of a Bob Hope USO comedy tour from the 1940s, while acknowledging modern military heroes from Edmond. Back by popular request, the show will feature Barret Huddleston and Lindsie VanWinkle-Guthrie in an all new “George Burns and Gracie Allen” skit.

Forty tickets are reserved FREE for Active Military or Veterans, but RSVP is required to obtain free tickets.
