“Vintage Voices personifies historical storytelling at its best. Each year we hold open auditions looking to cast individuals who will be committed to writing and performing the stories of the decedents who have been identified for this year’s event. Auditions will be a cold reading from a provided script. See you in June!” – Diana Enloe, Vintage Voices Co-Director
The annual event consists of walking tours held in the Alton Cemetery (5th and Vine Streets) with actors in period costumes telling the story of Altonians who have shaped the area’s history. The tour dates are October 5, 6, 12, 13, 2024, beginning at noon each day. Tours depart from the main gate on Vine Street every 15-20 minutes.
A non-walking performance is planned for Sunday, October 6, 2024. Details to come.
