Experience a dark excursion through the Victorian psyche with a performance employing antique glass magic lantern slides and projection equipment. We will visit the era’s morbid imagery of temperance tales, cautionary moral lessons for children, the drama of death at the hands of the merciless sea, and other skits and stories.

Magic lantern performers Elliott and Schlemowitz have received awards for their presentations from the Victorian Society NY and the Magic Lanterns Society UK. They have performed magic lantern shows at many museums and universities throughout the country.
