The Von Donk Family Old-Timey Vaudeville Revue

A rip-roaring tribute to all the music, magic, and comedy of the 20th century (except minstrel shows).

Estranged siblings Lottie and Vaughn Von Donk perform a career-spanning retrospective of original comedy songs to honour their family vaudeville troupe after the untimely death of their parents in a freak tap-dancing accident. There will be dancing! Costumes! Silent film! Rivalry! An accompanist!

Performed by Louisa Fitzhardinge (Comma Sutra), Andrew McClelland (A Seated Walking Tour of Western Europe), and Greg Lavell (Cabaret Unscripted).
