THE THREE GRACEFUL AVERY GIRLS

THE SISTER ACT TO TAKE VAUDEVILLE BY STORM

STARRING: AURORA, CLOVER and BELLA

Taking us behind the curtain and into their lives, THE LITTLE SHADOWS reveals how the art of vaudeville – in all its variety, madness, melodrama, hilarity and sorrow – echoes the art of life itself.
