In the 19th Century, the biggest event for months on end was often the arrival of the medicine show. It provided entertainment, dancing and diversion, all in the service of selling a patent medicine.
Come experience the spirit of the great American medicine show with music, dancing and theater in celebration of the anniversary of California statehood. A dance lesson, covering waltzes, polkas, and set dances like the Spanish Waltz and El Coyote, will be followed by two sets of live music and dancing. Wow, interesting photo opportunities for motion, people and color! Check the website for current information and to purchase tickets.
