OUR CAST

His first professional job was with the Great American Melodrama in Pismo Beach, CA. where he not only played “Fernand” in The Count of Monte Cristo but had his first Vaudeville experience. John spent the next 12 years bouncing from small resort-type theatres performing in over 100 different plays/musicals with vaudeville type after shows. Having directed and created many of these shows, this is where he learned the art of putting together a fun vaudeville type revue. His more prominent acting roles include; “Dr. Jykle” and “Mr. Hyde”, “The Beast”, In Beauty and the Beast, “Dr. Frankenstein”, “Will”, in Oklahoma, “The Dentist”, in Little Shop of Horrors, “Matt”, in Fantastick’s and “Raoul”, in The Phantom. He later found himself at Boulder’s Dinner Theatre going to and from there, to working in Denali, Alaska and performing on cruise ships. The Crystal Palace brought John to the Roaring Fork Valley where he met some of the most talented people in the state and decided to finally plant himself in this beautiful setting where he has directed or performed in virtually every theatrical venue around. He has choreographed many shows for Aspen Community Theatre where he directed and choreographed "The Music Man" in 2009. John has had the dream of opening a small vaudeville theatre for over twenty years and it has finally come to fruition.

As a young mom living on the streets of Livingston, TX with her 13 puppies, some wonderful folks realized she was bound for bigger and better things and helped her make her way to Glenwood Springs in the spring of 2021. When her foster mom brought her by to meet John, it was love at first sight! She is so happy to be able to come to work with John and learn the tricks of the trade from all the wonderful actors here at the Vaudeville. Rio’s favorite past times are watching John fly fish for hours by the side of the river, time up in the high country and visiting her foster mom and playing with Adeline and Cody.
