Event Details

About a hundred years ago, Greenlawn and Centerport were filled with Vaudeville actors, directors, and producers. Deanne Rathke, Director Emeritus of Greenlawn Centerport Historical Association, researched little-known facts about the Vaudevillians of Greenlawn. The Greenlawn map of 1909 shows that the Greenlawn theater colony had an impressive group of managers and actors, as well as the President of Columbia Amusement Company, J. Herbert Mack. In this informative lecture, we will show many original pictures from the GCHA collection. Please register.

A presentation focusing on the Centerport Vaudevillians will be scheduled for a later date to be determined.
