Speaker 1 (00:03):
Oh my gosh, be so glad that you are listening
right now, because you are about to get entertained, and
Boots is about to get edge of mccatie.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Yeah, I didn't know. This is a surprise. I thought
it was a wine company. The way the name sounded
you funny.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
So we write these rundowns and we organize who's coming
on the shows each Sunday. And I had on the
rundown Vaudevilladies, and Boots is like, huh is that a drink? No?
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Vaudeviladies.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
We're going to get a lesson and we're going to
be entertained, and you will be to Courtney. Why don't
you begin and tell us what is vaude viladies? For
those who don't know, like Bootsy.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I can't spell it.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
V A U D V I L L I T
I S. We are the longest running variety show in
the United States.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You think of vaudeville, what do you think of a vaudeville?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I'm not you know what. I am a car guy.
I don't know much about it. This is going to be.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Such a great interview. He's going to get so edgema.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I'm an appalation Caucasian from Belmont.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
I'm an appellation as well, some song, dance, comedy, all
the things on stage.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
How long has it been around in Central Ohio? Eighty
third years?
Speaker 2 (01:15):
That's how old I feel sometimes.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
So who'd you bring with you, Courtney?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
I have Maggie Ellison.
Speaker 5 (01:20):
Go ahead, Maggie, Hello, I'm Maggie.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
How long have you been part of Audibilities since.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Two thousand and seven? My first show was at Vet's
Memorial Downtown.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
What was that first show?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (01:31):
Goodness, now you're really testing my knowledge here. We did
a tribute to different decades that year.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
How do you guys get the word out to have
people come and realize what Vaudabilities is all about? Because
I have been to one of your shows. I have
been and it's just it's fun. It's very, very fun
to be there.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
All of our friends and family comes, you know, a
lot of the castrings brings the audience. We also have
a lot of senior groups that are oil to us
and come every Friday or matinee is filled with senior
groups that keep coming year after year.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Well, so how do you get in this business? I mean,
were you singing these little girls and little guys or
how does that.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
I mean, so, what's really fun about the show is
that all of us have some backstory, whether we sang
growing up or dance growing up. I danced since I
was three years old a studio, moved here to Columbus,
did dance a little bit in college, much like most
of our cast, didn't pursue it as a career. It
(02:36):
was just something for fun at work in marketing. Most
of us have full time careers. I was going to
ask outside of the performing arts, and this gives us
an opportunity to get on stage again, which is.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Really cool, you know, because I think you have that
background and it kind of gets in you, and it's
sad when you don't get to do it anymore because
it is something that when people are on stage and
thrive at it, they really don't ever want it to end.
So this gives them an opportunity and another place to shine.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Basically, absolutely, I think the youngest person in this show
is five, and the oldest is well over eighty.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
We've had people on stage.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Why did you look at him when she said that
you look over four, you're not eighty.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I feel like it.
Speaker 7 (03:27):
Do you know how did you get into vaud vilities,
similar to kind of the story that Maggie was sharing.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I was in Columbus.
Speaker 7 (03:33):
I had heard I was a music major Ohio State,
and I had heard about this community group.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
It was pretty large back then.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
I think I started in ninety seven and I think
we had probably four hundred to five hundred people in
the cast that year. So it was it was one
of those where you know, like deer in the headlights,
this is legit, this is huge, and it was such
a community based organization. I think that's what has kept
it a lot this whole time, is because you know,
it was born in the community, like kind of in
(04:03):
the Upper Arlington area, and it's it's just grown and
stayed there and so people know it.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
It's a staple like all around central Ohio.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
So we're talking to some performers from Vaude Villadi's. How
did it get its name? It's such a cool name.
I mean, Boots did think it was a drink. It
is not like a.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Great like whiskey, you're a wine.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Vaudevilities.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Give me a sourbility.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
How do we need like a signature drink in the
lobby at the Lincoln So Vaudevillady started in nineteen forty
three in the hype and the time of Vaudeville. So
the show started as a traditional Vaudeville variety performance and
it's kept We've kept that over the years and have
(04:44):
added the holiday show which we have coming up. That's
what we have going on this weekend. So that traditional
Vaudeville variety style with live performances and music and comedy
and singing and dancing. So it's not a traditional musical
in that sense, but it follows that Vaudeville style.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
So we've kept that.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That name last, not least this lady Lenk's name. Hi, everybody,
tell us your story. So she's in the chair.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Sorry about that, I'm sitting low. My vaudevility story.
Speaker 8 (05:17):
So I moved to Columbus last July and I minored
in music in college at Wright State University. It was
totally you know, music has.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Been in my life since I was a little kid.
Speaker 8 (05:28):
I've been singing since I was a little kid, did
it for fun in college and then when I moved
to Columbus. I work at the Ouse State University and
one of my colleagues I was telling her in one
of our first meetings ever meeting I'm interested in getting
involved and performing again in Columbus because there's just so
much going on. And she's like, I'm in this really
(05:49):
cool group called Vaude Villadies, and we sing and we
dance and we act and there's just something for everybody.
And so I auditioned for my very first show last year.
So this is my third show now I've been in.
This is my second holiday show. Did the spring show
last year. And we like to use this phrase being
stuck on voud Villady's glue. And I don't think I'll
(06:10):
be leaving any time. So well, that's the community.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's just amazing. I love the people are what over
can you hear? So we want to promote next weekend show.
What is this going to be like when people step
out and see you guys on stage?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
What are they going to see this year?
Speaker 1 (06:24):
What's different?
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Great question.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
So Christmas time in Columbus. We're at the Lincoln Theater.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
This is our second show at the Lincoln December eleventh
through the fourteenth. Tickets for the show start at twenty
five dollars and go up from there. The show itself
is a one act, family friendly production, singing, dancing, live
musicians just a ton of talent. That cast is over
one hundred people, so a lot of ins and outs,
(06:52):
a ton of costume changes. I always think, find someone
and like count how many times they have to change
their costumes, and like count how many seconds they have to.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Between numbers two.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
So lots of lots of energy, Christmas and holiday favorites,
a lot of amazing songs in the show.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Who's the coach? Who's the captain? Like, I mean, you've
got one hundred.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Team coach, who's the coach?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, I mean, seriously, the twenty guys get on
a holiday, we pick one guy to get, but you've
got one hundred people and they all are very talented
and probably a lot of egos in a positive way.
Who gets the chore of controlling everybody?
Speaker 4 (07:31):
We have a few different different leaders in the organization.
One Kara Curtis is our artistic director. She leads from
that that strategy putting that you know, show into play.
We don't do book shows. So she creates these shows.
She's here songs that she wants to put in, she
writes the skits.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
She means, hold on for one second, you don't do
book shows. Meeting shows that have already been written and
performed in other companies.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Right, these are original shows.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Wow, I did not realize the original shows a talent. Yes,
And you'll.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Hear songs that you recognize that you know I've heard.
But every show I'm guessing that you would come to,
you'll probably hear one that you probably haven't heard before,
and you're like, there's actually a holiday song out there
that I haven't heard yet.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Of course doesn't help get people in the holiday spirit
and the Christmas spirit.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Absolutely so. I've been in the show since I think
this is my thirteenth year, and one of my favorite
memories is one of the matinees we had to senior
group come and this lady comes up to me, almost
in tears, and she says, I had a fire in
my house this year. She said, I wasn't going to
come to the show. My friend came and said you
need to come with me, and I said, I'm so
(08:39):
stressed out. I don't have the time, I don't have
the energy to do it. And the friend said, no,
you have to come. After the show, she ran up,
found me, gave me a hug, and she said, I
set here for a little over an hour and my
mindset has totally changed. She's like, I'm gonna call my family,
have them come over. We're gonna do something. It just
puts everybody in the holiday spirit for real.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
That's a good story.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
It is a good story. So we want to hear
you guys perform, and we're giving away tickets. So we're
going to take a break. When we come back. Call

Always? It's just and I were just talking about this.
It's a good feeling.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
You don't just get used to it like it's no
big deal.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
You just you just what you start singing. It just
goes away and you in your mode. Okay, that's that's fair.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
But I think if you lose that, if you lose
those initial butter right before you go, you know, but
if you lose that, I feel like you you have
kind of you know, you lost the lost the edge
to really try to do your best.
Speaker 1 (13:17):

Speaker 1 (15:13):
That was beautiful. Thank you so much?
Speaker 2 (15:15):
You think you?
Speaker 1 (15:16):
I mean, that does get you in the holiday spirit
for sure.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
No, I gotta ask questions. When I see duets like that,
it's like you guys get into the most, Like when
you see two singers, it's like they're in love almost.
It's you know, I don't mean that in a weird way.
I'm just saying, you guys get so do you actually
chemically get into each other's mode or how would you
explain that to people not being a professional singer.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
I think you do when you when you're working with
someone and you look like I was looking at watch
making sure that you know that we you were the
phrasing together, and so I just.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Wanted to Yeah, yeah, you're tuning into each other.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah, you absolutely do.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Creative spirit.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah, that's that's because you see like old days Kenny
Rogers and Dolly Parton singing together. You can see the chemistry,
or Whitney Houston in another or Kid Rock and Cheryl Crow.
You see professionals and how they internew like, man, are
they dating? But they're really not. It's just you guys
are focusing in on each other.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Right, I would say we.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Have a lot of relationships that have came out of
audibility audibilities and now their children are in VOD Village.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
That's awesome.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
So you definitely feel that.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
That's why Boots asked you do you guys have kids?
Are they do they sing? Do they dance? Do they act?
So one more question before we go to break and
you guys are gonna help us be our phone of
friends for Rivia because it's name that tune for Christmas songs.
But go around the room and just say one of
the weirdest things or that has ever happened to you
on stage, Like I can't believe that just happened, boy,
while you were performing anything bizarre ever happened?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Well, because it haunts me to this day. So it
was the first time it had ever happened.
Speaker 7 (16:58):
And I was doing a cabaret and I was going
on stage and I was supposed to be singing this
song about like I can't wait to be a star,
and it was a it was a big song. And
I get up on stage and the music' hype and
I'm getting ready to like sing my first verse, and
I completely blanked.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
On all my lyrics.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
I mean they were gone for how long?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
So you just stood there.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
I stood and I eventually just walked off stage like
I had nothing. I couldn't get it back for some reason.
So to this day that haunts me a little bit
about forgetting lyrics because you know.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I'm but it never happened again after that.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
No, it hasn't happened since then. But I also am
a little bit. I work a little bit harder at memorizing.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Courtney, what about you? Anything ever happened to you while
you were on stage, you fall or anything. So I'm
a dancer.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
I have fallen on the curtain, tripped on it accidentally.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
It's not your fall though.
Speaker 10 (17:45):
No.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I have also forgot part of my costume that maybe
was the lower half, and I had a jacket on
and I had to run off stage. You didn't have pants,
short skirt, nothing. And then sometimes like I've.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
All right, everybody want tickets now, Yeah, I forgot.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
To buckle the buff, forgot to buckle the shoe, and
I did a tap dance with a tap shoe.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Just dangling along. I mean, there's a lot of mishaps.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Well, sure, I just have to add to that because
last year we had we were in a number together.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
We were dancing next to each other, and she had
such a fast change and she is in the wings
and three people are trying to dress her because she
had like literally sixteen counts to like do this costume change,
and you know she would barely be like making it
on stage, pulling on a piece of costume as she
entered from the curtain.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
She's a probe, you know what, and things that you
do probably the audience doesn't even realize it you You're like,
this is the end of the world. Oh my gosh,
I'm so embarrassed. But to most audience members, they didn't
even know it. We need to go to break. We're
gonna hear your two stories as well, but we need
a Rivia caller six one four. We're gonna give your.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Numbers do seven nine nineteen fifty seven, six one four
seven nine three nineteen fifty seven because we will definitely
have good phone lines. For some reason back at the
mother Hub too, that doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
So just think of Boots's favorite cars in nineteen fifty seven. Yes,
and the three numbers before.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
That is seven ninety three sixty month four seven.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Nine three nineteen fifty seven. Call up and compete, you guys.
This is going to be fun. It's like name your
tune for Christmas songs and these are really traditional good.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You will know it for sure, all right, Raw Indian
Boots always brought you by the undfeated American made tattletalel
arm system from the Heartman Bank Studios on news radios.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Well a correction, it's raw yes, with Indian Boots, yes,
but also with the vaudvilities perfect. We're going to switch
up Rivia A little bit today, perfect for you guys,
since you're in here, we are going to do it
Name that tune style. You know how that works, right, Boots, I.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Just took a drink. I went ready for that. I'm
getting ready for this chaos.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Isn't that terrible when you're at a restaurant or you're
eating and the waiter, waitress comes over, or someone goes over, Hey,
how you're doing. You've got a mouthful of food, You're la, No.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
What's worse? Wait, your dentist. You said you're good friends
of your dentist. When they got your fingers jammed in
your mouth and sucking air and you're like, oh, and
they want to talk to They say, how's your dad been?
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That's not good either.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah. I think they do it on purpose to mess
with us.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
So, Rivia, we are doing Name that tune all Christmas songs.
If you guys don't know these, then you must have
been living under a rock for decades. Jill our reigning champion,
fingers crossed boots. So this is going to work this time.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Okay, Jill, are you there?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
I'm here.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
You're good?
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, Jill is jolly Julie. How many Winston Road. Is
Jill going, She's.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Kicking butt man. That's ridiculous. Good job.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Funny though, it is like whenever she played before she
was like, I'm want and done.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I never went now, yeah, Julie, are you today?
Speaker 11 (20:49):
Christmas?

Speaker 2 (28:08):
It's been rough. The phone lines have been weird this
last few months. But eight times the time change, this
is what I'll throw a curve at the time change
always screws up the systems. And I don't know why, but.
Speaker 1 (28:18):

sharing some kind of embarrassing but fun stories that have
happened to you while you were performing on stage. These
two went, now we got to go to you too.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
So I'll go. I had time to think about this,
so two weeks ago rehearsal, I'm going to go. Just
very recent.
Speaker 6 (29:26):
So we have our show coming up Christmas time in Columbus,
and we ran we're doing a wooden soldier piece that
turns into a kickline. And I realized as I was
exiting the stage we were practicing in costume, that my
pants were completely down, like falling down, and.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
So I'll pin them for the show.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
It's good that I practiced and turned on underneath, you know,
nothing crazy, but yeah, they didn't exactly stay up.
Speaker 5 (29:53):
So a lot of costume snags that happens.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
What do you do because you don't want to draw
attention to yourself, like, hey, look, bands are falling down.
You kind of slowly hold him up like that.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
Yeah, we've lost feathers, we've lost head pieces, we've lost
So when you.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Were one of like the girls kicked her leg up
to their head.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
Yeah, so it is Courtney, you are okay.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
So you guys are ready y etes or what they
called the guts Ready where I'm from, it was Ready studios.
Speaker 10 (30:21):
Right.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Yeah, so there's twelve of us kicked each other. Oh yeah,
we've done that too.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, you guys laugh about it's.
Speaker 5 (30:30):
Kill on you do, but you do it backstage.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
There has to be the one girl that always kicks
and screws up and you guys gotta get rid of it.
Did that happen?
Speaker 4 (30:41):
She practices.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's very hard. It's like precision.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
So and actually Gino was in our last kick line.
We did a number in our previous is the only
guy in the kick line?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Do you know how that I shouldn't be doing that?
You pull something?
Speaker 5 (30:55):
He dou He did a cartwheel to get into it.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
That's awesome. What a showman?
Speaker 12 (31:01):
All right?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Anything you got about a minute? Anything that embarrassing ever
happened to you on stage.
Speaker 8 (31:04):
I was gonna go with a costume snaff food, but
we've already had several of things. So really the only
unfortunate thing that's happened to me is I twisted my
ankle going off stage.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
This was in high school, so years ago.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
That's okay.
Speaker 8 (31:15):
But every time I would get up this was a
musical performance, I had to stand on this bench, and
this bench had these like wooden boards, and I had
to perform very well to overcome the fear that I
had every time I got on that bench of my
ankle twisting, and I did not. So I have not
since then had any injury.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Snaffoods. You overcame it, I conquered. Okay, one more chance
for people, so they can want to go to the show.
Where can they get information to get tickets?
Speaker 6 (31:43):

you can go. We are performing at the link In

VV of course stands for it was so fun having
you guys in studio, wasn't that great? Boots?
Speaker 2 (32:09):

Speaker 2 (32:31):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Well, you guys were just so great to have in studio.
We really really appreciate it. And that's it.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
What matters is coming up next to treat friends like
family and your family late friends, time to go first.
This has been raw. Indian boots were always protected by
the unefeated American made Tattletale alarm system from the Harlem
Bank Studios on news Radio six ten WTV in
Oh my gosh, be so glad that you are listening
right now, because you are about to get entertained, and
Boots is about to get edge of mccatie.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Yeah, I didn't know. This is a surprise. I thought
it was a wine company. The way the name sounded
you funny.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
So we write these rundowns and we organize who's coming
on the shows each Sunday. And I had on the
rundown Vaudevilladies, and Boots is like, huh is that a drink? No?
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Vaudeviladies.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
We're going to get a lesson and we're going to
be entertained, and you will be to Courtney. Why don't
you begin and tell us what is vaude viladies? For
those who don't know, like Bootsy.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I can't spell it.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
V A U D V I L L I T
I S. We are the longest running variety show in
the United States.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
You think of vaudeville, what do you think of a vaudeville?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I'm not you know what. I am a car guy.
I don't know much about it. This is going to be.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Such a great interview. He's going to get so edgema.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I'm an appalation Caucasian from Belmont.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
I'm an appellation as well, some song, dance, comedy, all
the things on stage.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
How long has it been around in Central Ohio? Eighty
third years?
Speaker 2 (01:15):
That's how old I feel sometimes.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
So who'd you bring with you, Courtney?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
I have Maggie Ellison.
Speaker 5 (01:20):
Go ahead, Maggie, Hello, I'm Maggie.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
How long have you been part of Audibilities since.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Two thousand and seven? My first show was at Vet's
Memorial Downtown.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
What was that first show?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (01:31):
Goodness, now you're really testing my knowledge here. We did
a tribute to different decades that year.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
How do you guys get the word out to have
people come and realize what Vaudabilities is all about? Because
I have been to one of your shows. I have
been and it's just it's fun. It's very, very fun
to be there.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
All of our friends and family comes, you know, a
lot of the castrings brings the audience. We also have
a lot of senior groups that are oil to us
and come every Friday or matinee is filled with senior
groups that keep coming year after year.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Well, so how do you get in this business? I mean,
were you singing these little girls and little guys or
how does that.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
I mean, so, what's really fun about the show is
that all of us have some backstory, whether we sang
growing up or dance growing up. I danced since I
was three years old a studio, moved here to Columbus,
did dance a little bit in college, much like most
of our cast, didn't pursue it as a career. It
(02:36):
was just something for fun at work in marketing. Most
of us have full time careers. I was going to
ask outside of the performing arts, and this gives us
an opportunity to get on stage again, which is.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Really cool, you know, because I think you have that
background and it kind of gets in you, and it's
sad when you don't get to do it anymore because
it is something that when people are on stage and
thrive at it, they really don't ever want it to end.
So this gives them an opportunity and another place to shine.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Basically, absolutely, I think the youngest person in this show
is five, and the oldest is well over eighty.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
We've had people on stage.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Why did you look at him when she said that
you look over four, you're not eighty.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I feel like it.
Speaker 7 (03:27):
Do you know how did you get into vaud vilities,
similar to kind of the story that Maggie was sharing.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I was in Columbus.
Speaker 7 (03:33):
I had heard I was a music major Ohio State,
and I had heard about this community group.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
It was pretty large back then.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
I think I started in ninety seven and I think
we had probably four hundred to five hundred people in
the cast that year. So it was it was one
of those where you know, like deer in the headlights,
this is legit, this is huge, and it was such
a community based organization. I think that's what has kept
it a lot this whole time, is because you know,
it was born in the community, like kind of in
(04:03):
the Upper Arlington area, and it's it's just grown and
stayed there and so people know it.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
It's a staple like all around central Ohio.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
So we're talking to some performers from Vaude Villadi's. How
did it get its name? It's such a cool name.
I mean, Boots did think it was a drink. It
is not like a.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Great like whiskey, you're a wine.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Vaudevilities.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Give me a sourbility.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
How do we need like a signature drink in the
lobby at the Lincoln So Vaudevillady started in nineteen forty
three in the hype and the time of Vaudeville. So
the show started as a traditional Vaudeville variety performance and
it's kept We've kept that over the years and have
(04:44):
added the holiday show which we have coming up. That's
what we have going on this weekend. So that traditional
Vaudeville variety style with live performances and music and comedy
and singing and dancing. So it's not a traditional musical
in that sense, but it follows that Vaudeville style.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
So we've kept that.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That name last, not least this lady Lenk's name. Hi, everybody,
tell us your story. So she's in the chair.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Sorry about that, I'm sitting low. My vaudevility story.
Speaker 8 (05:17):
So I moved to Columbus last July and I minored
in music in college at Wright State University. It was
totally you know, music has.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Been in my life since I was a little kid.
Speaker 8 (05:28):
I've been singing since I was a little kid, did
it for fun in college and then when I moved
to Columbus. I work at the Ouse State University and
one of my colleagues I was telling her in one
of our first meetings ever meeting I'm interested in getting
involved and performing again in Columbus because there's just so
much going on. And she's like, I'm in this really
(05:49):
cool group called Vaude Villadies, and we sing and we
dance and we act and there's just something for everybody.
And so I auditioned for my very first show last year.
So this is my third show now I've been in.
This is my second holiday show. Did the spring show
last year. And we like to use this phrase being
stuck on voud Villady's glue. And I don't think I'll
(06:10):
be leaving any time. So well, that's the community.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's just amazing. I love the people are what over
can you hear? So we want to promote next weekend show.
What is this going to be like when people step
out and see you guys on stage?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
What are they going to see this year?
Speaker 1 (06:24):
What's different?
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Great question.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
So Christmas time in Columbus. We're at the Lincoln Theater.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
This is our second show at the Lincoln December eleventh
through the fourteenth. Tickets for the show start at twenty
five dollars and go up from there. The show itself
is a one act, family friendly production, singing, dancing, live
musicians just a ton of talent. That cast is over
one hundred people, so a lot of ins and outs,
(06:52):
a ton of costume changes. I always think, find someone
and like count how many times they have to change
their costumes, and like count how many seconds they have to.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Between numbers two.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
So lots of lots of energy, Christmas and holiday favorites,
a lot of amazing songs in the show.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Who's the coach? Who's the captain? Like, I mean, you've
got one hundred.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Team coach, who's the coach?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I mean, I mean, seriously, the twenty guys get on
a holiday, we pick one guy to get, but you've
got one hundred people and they all are very talented
and probably a lot of egos in a positive way.
Who gets the chore of controlling everybody?
Speaker 4 (07:31):
We have a few different different leaders in the organization.
One Kara Curtis is our artistic director. She leads from
that that strategy putting that you know, show into play.
We don't do book shows. So she creates these shows.
She's here songs that she wants to put in, she
writes the skits.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
She means, hold on for one second, you don't do
book shows. Meeting shows that have already been written and
performed in other companies.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Right, these are original shows.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Wow, I did not realize the original shows a talent. Yes,
And you'll.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Hear songs that you recognize that you know I've heard.
But every show I'm guessing that you would come to,
you'll probably hear one that you probably haven't heard before,
and you're like, there's actually a holiday song out there
that I haven't heard yet.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Of course doesn't help get people in the holiday spirit
and the Christmas spirit.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Absolutely so. I've been in the show since I think
this is my thirteenth year, and one of my favorite
memories is one of the matinees we had to senior
group come and this lady comes up to me, almost
in tears, and she says, I had a fire in
my house this year. She said, I wasn't going to
come to the show. My friend came and said you
need to come with me, and I said, I'm so
(08:39):
stressed out. I don't have the time, I don't have
the energy to do it. And the friend said, no,
you have to come. After the show, she ran up,
found me, gave me a hug, and she said, I
set here for a little over an hour and my
mindset has totally changed. She's like, I'm gonna call my family,
have them come over. We're gonna do something. It just
puts everybody in the holiday spirit for real.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
That's a good story.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
It is a good story. So we want to hear
you guys perform, and we're giving away tickets. So we're
going to take a break. When we come back. Call
us up and you know what, just tell us what's
your favorite Christmas song of all time? Is it Rudolph?

thing now about and with.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
This has been a learning day.
Speaker 1 (10:03):

Speaker 2 (12:57):
You just you just what you start singing. It just
goes away and you in your mode. Okay, that's that's fair.
Speaker 7 (13:04):

Speaker 1 (15:13):
That was beautiful. Thank you so much?
Speaker 2 (15:15):
You think you?
Speaker 1 (15:16):
I mean, that does get you in the holiday spirit
for sure.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
No, I gotta ask questions. When I see duets like that,
it's like you guys get into the most, Like when
you see two singers, it's like they're in love almost.
It's you know, I don't mean that in a weird way.
I'm just saying, you guys get so do you actually
chemically get into each other's mode or how would you
explain that to people not being a professional singer.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
I think you do when you when you're working with
someone and you look like I was looking at watch
making sure that you know that we you were the
phrasing together, and so I just.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Wanted to Yeah, yeah, you're tuning into each other.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah, you absolutely do.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Creative spirit.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah, that's that's because you see like old days Kenny
Rogers and Dolly Parton singing together. You can see the chemistry,
or Whitney Houston in another or Kid Rock and Cheryl Crow.
You see professionals and how they internew like, man, are
they dating? But they're really not. It's just you guys
are focusing in on each other.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Right, I would say we.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Have a lot of relationships that have came out of
audibility audibilities and now their children are in VOD Village.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
That's awesome.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
So you definitely feel that.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
That's why Boots asked you do you guys have kids?
Are they do they sing? Do they dance? Do they act?
So one more question before we go to break and
you guys are gonna help us be our phone of
friends for Rivia because it's name that tune for Christmas songs.
But go around the room and just say one of
the weirdest things or that has ever happened to you
on stage, Like I can't believe that just happened, boy,
while you were performing anything bizarre ever happened?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Well, because it haunts me to this day. So it
was the first time it had ever happened.
Speaker 7 (16:58):
And I was doing a cabaret and I was going
on stage and I was supposed to be singing this
song about like I can't wait to be a star,
and it was a it was a big song. And
I get up on stage and the music' hype and
I'm getting ready to like sing my first verse, and
I completely blanked.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
On all my lyrics.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
I mean they were gone for how long?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
So you just stood there.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
I stood and I eventually just walked off stage like
I had nothing. I couldn't get it back for some reason.
So to this day that haunts me a little bit
about forgetting lyrics because you know.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I'm but it never happened again after that.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
No, it hasn't happened since then. But I also am
a little bit. I work a little bit harder at memorizing.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Courtney, what about you? Anything ever happened to you while
you were on stage, you fall or anything. So I'm
a dancer.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
I have fallen on the curtain, tripped on it accidentally.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
It's not your fall though.
Speaker 10 (17:45):
No.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I have also forgot part of my costume that maybe
was the lower half, and I had a jacket on
and I had to run off stage. You didn't have pants,
short skirt, nothing. And then sometimes like I've.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
All right, everybody want tickets now, Yeah, I forgot.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
To buckle the buff, forgot to buckle the shoe, and
I did a tap dance with a tap shoe.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Just dangling along. I mean, there's a lot of mishaps.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Well, sure, I just have to add to that because
last year we had we were in a number together.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
We were dancing next to each other, and she had
such a fast change and she is in the wings
and three people are trying to dress her because she
had like literally sixteen counts to like do this costume change,
and you know she would barely be like making it
on stage, pulling on a piece of costume as she
entered from the curtain.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
She's a probe, you know what, and things that you
do probably the audience doesn't even realize it you You're like,
this is the end of the world. Oh my gosh,
I'm so embarrassed. But to most audience members, they didn't
even know it. We need to go to break. We're
gonna hear your two stories as well, but we need
a Rivia caller six one four. We're gonna give your.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Numbers do seven nine nineteen fifty seven, six one four
seven nine three nineteen fifty seven because we will definitely
have good phone lines. For some reason back at the
mother Hub too, that doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
So just think of Boots's favorite cars in nineteen fifty seven. Yes,
and the three numbers before.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
That is seven ninety three sixty month four seven.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Nine three nineteen fifty seven. Call up and compete, you guys.
This is going to be fun. It's like name your
tune for Christmas songs and these are really traditional good.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You will know it for sure, all right, Raw Indian
Boots always brought you by the undfeated American made tattletalel
arm system from the Heartman Bank Studios on news radios.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Well a correction, it's raw yes, with Indian Boots, yes,
but also with the vaudvilities perfect. We're going to switch
up Rivia A little bit today, perfect for you guys,
since you're in here, we are going to do it
Name that tune style. You know how that works, right, Boots, I.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Just took a drink. I went ready for that. I'm
getting ready for this chaos.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Isn't that terrible when you're at a restaurant or you're
eating and the waiter, waitress comes over, or someone goes over, Hey,
how you're doing. You've got a mouthful of food, You're la, No.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
What's worse? Wait, your dentist. You said you're good friends
of your dentist. When they got your fingers jammed in
your mouth and sucking air and you're like, oh, and
they want to talk to They say, how's your dad been?
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That's not good either.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah. I think they do it on purpose to mess
with us.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
So, Rivia, we are doing Name that tune all Christmas songs.
If you guys don't know these, then you must have
been living under a rock for decades. Jill our reigning champion,

sharing some kind of embarrassing but fun stories that have
happened to you while you were performing on stage. These
two went, now we got to go to you too.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
So I'll go. I had time to think about this,
so two weeks ago rehearsal, I'm going to go. Just
very recent.
Speaker 6 (29:26):
So we have our show coming up Christmas time in Columbus,
and we ran we're doing a wooden soldier piece that
turns into a kickline. And I realized as I was
exiting the stage we were practicing in costume, that my
pants were completely down, like falling down, and.
Speaker 5 (29:44):
So I'll pin them for the show.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
It's good that I practiced and turned on underneath, you know,
nothing crazy, but yeah, they didn't exactly stay up.
Speaker 5 (29:53):
So a lot of costume snags that happens.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
What do you do because you don't want to draw
attention to yourself, like, hey, look, bands are falling down.
You kind of slowly hold him up like that.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
Yeah, we've lost feathers, we've lost head pieces, we've lost
So when you.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Were one of like the girls kicked her leg up
to their head.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
Yeah, so it is Courtney, you are okay.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
So you guys are ready y etes or what they
called the guts Ready where I'm from, it was Ready studios.
Speaker 10 (30:21):
Right.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
Yeah, so there's twelve of us kicked each other. Oh yeah,
we've done that too.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, you guys laugh about it's.
Speaker 5 (30:30):
Kill on you do, but you do it backstage.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
There has to be the one girl that always kicks
and screws up and you guys gotta get rid of it.
Did that happen?
Speaker 4 (30:41):
She practices.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
It's very hard. It's like precision.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
So and actually Gino was in our last kick line.
We did a number in our previous is the only
guy in the kick line?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Do you know how that I shouldn't be doing that?
You pull something?
Speaker 5 (30:55):
He dou He did a cartwheel to get into it.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
That's awesome. What a showman?
Speaker 12 (31:01):
All right?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Anything you got about a minute? Anything that embarrassing ever
happened to you on stage.
Speaker 8 (31:04):
I was gonna go with a costume snaff food, but
we've already had several of things. So really the only
unfortunate thing that's happened to me is I twisted my
ankle going off stage.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
This was in high school, so years ago.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
That's okay.
Speaker 8 (31:15):
But every time I would get up this was a
musical performance, I had to stand on this bench, and
this bench had these like wooden boards, and I had
to perform very well to overcome the fear that I
had every time I got on that bench of my
ankle twisting, and I did not. So I have not
since then had any injury.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Snaffoods. You overcame it, I conquered. Okay, one more chance
