The Medicine Show is the perfect after-dinner show when space and budget do not allow for the bigger shows.The Medicine Show is based on the traveling medicine shows of the 1800's, where traveling snake oil salesmen used illusion, fire-eating, wild west shows and other forms of entertainment to draw a crowd, with the express purpose of selling some form of patent medicine elixir. Some of our most famous beverages being sold today started out as patent medicines--Coca Cola, for example.
The humorous dialogue is delivered in the singsong manner of the old-time con-artist and medicine man.
The Show emphasizes humor, superior illusions and audience participation.
