An Awful Lot of Vaudeville is the result of The Hoodoo Emporium (responsible for the Jitterbug Club, Mojo Juju and The Snake Oil Merchants) and Red Bennies’ alignment to bring Melbourne a seriously authentic, offbeat vaudeville experience. Boasting a spectacular lineup of nine performers, showing off everything from magicians’ trickery, old-school burlesque glamour and comedic shenanigans, this run of shows promises to be a hilarious mixup of old and new.
