TRIBUTE TO THE TROOPS
VIETNAM ERA
A note from Elizabeth,
Over 50 years ago, our Vietnam Era veterans did not get a proper 'Welcome Home'. It's about time that changes, so I have created a show that does just that!
This is a large-scale production that features pre-recorded veteran interviews as well as nostalgic TV clips and popular music of the era. With its glimpses into the past, the show maintains a light feeling while educating the audience at the same time.
Much like a 'camp show', audience participation is encouraged as you take this trip down memory lane! Even if you didn't experience the era, you will enjoy this unique and interactive show.
This performance is wonderful by itself but is even more moving when coupled with the efforts of your organization.
Working together, we follow the format of my previously successful events and can include:
A Wall of Honor, an interactive map, a mess hall or chow line, booths from various veteran support organizations, Vietnam memorabilia, a fun 'Stars and Stripes' style program, attendance prizes, raffles and much more!
The performance will have your veterans finally feeling appreciated for their sacrifices! Going beyond the show and making this an event, your veterans will leave feeling the brotherhood that only they can know. Either way, this event will help to heal some of the scars our Vietnam veterans still bear.
The videos below are short ads from previous performances. Be sure to watch the compilation video too!
March 29th is vietnam veterans' day.
save the date!
Saturday, march 29th, 2025
Many folks have asked if we will be hosting the event again in Belleville Il. like we did in 2023. That venue was a great space for us but unfortunately, it isn't available on that date. We are seeking a venue space in the Metro St. Louis area and will add that to this page as soon as we secure a location.
​
Since we will be honoring our Vietnam veterans on the actual date dedicated to them, we have visions for a bigger and better event than ever before! A big production of this nature takes a lot of support. Please check back for ways you can become involved. Any support is appreciated!
​
​
WE CAN BRING THE PRODUCTION TO YOU!
​
​​
There are two ways this production is offered.
One way is when it is produced at a location that the non-profit chooses.
​
The second way is for a group to host the event at their location.
With this second method, our team supports and guides your group, helping you to have a successful event. We bring all of the all of the necessary people and equipment to transform your space into a stage set that will take your audience on a journey of fond remembrances.
Much is included in this option.
Please contact our team for more information.
